Les Bas-fonds de Frisco (1949)
De retour chez lui après s'être embarqué comme mécanicien et avoir fait le tour du monde, Nick Garcos découvre que son père a perdu ses jambes dans un accident provoqué par un grossiste en fruits de San Francisco. Pour faire valoir ses droits, le jeune homme s'associe avec un routier pour convoyer des fruits et plonge ainsi dans les halles de Frisco : immigrés exploités, rythme de travail infernal, vie nocturne du marché, racket, corruption. Dans sa lutte contre le grossiste Mike Figlia, Nick trouvera une aide inattendue de la part d'une femme légère.
