Borderline (1930)

The female head of a criminal gang in Chinatown is after a valuable jewel, and lets nothing stand in her way of finding it.

Based on a true story, two-timing boozing wife Roxie Hart kills her lover in cold blood after he leaves her, and finagles her way out being indicted. The basis for Kander/Ebb’s 1975 Broadway musical and its Oscar-winning 2002 film adaptation.

A lady gas station attendant gets mixed up with escaped murderers.
