Description
Caucasian and Japanese-American Korean War army buddies Corbett and Shigeta now work side by side in the LA homicide squad. When stripper Gloria Pall is murdered, they are sent to investigate. Both are smitten by the lovely Victoria Shaw, who is implicated in the crime. Corbett becomes jealous of Shigeta, who is deeply hurt, feeling that Corbett's animosity is borne of racism. Their friendship, and the central romance, is resolved after the detectives bring the murderer to heel in Los Angeles' Little Tokyo. Film takes a daring look at interracial romance at a time when it was still a hot-button issue.
