Film Synopsis
Each Dawn I Die (1939) follows a crusading reporter who is framed for manslaughter and thrown into a corrupt, violent prison where his ideals are pushed to the breaking point. As he endures brutality and political manipulation, he forms an uneasy alliance with a hardened gangster whose help may be his only path to justice. This gritty crime drama blends social critique, prison-yard tension, and hardboiled emotion in a fierce study of corruption and survival.
