Joe Miracle (Glenn Ford) is on the run from the law. He's a returning vet who finds his San Francisco nightclub under the control of the mob. His friend and partner Leo is presumed dead. He steals $100k from formerly his own club and tries to sail for Yokohama on Christmas Eve. He assumes a different identity to hide until his ship arrives. Sweet social worker Jenny Jones believes him to be a down-and-out musician named Victor Christopher.
This is mostly crime drama with a touch of Christmas inspired goodwill. I don't care that much about the crime drama. The feel-good scenes are really touching. I love the blanket scene. I really wish that this is more a Christmas movie rather and less a neo-noir crime drama.
