Description: Frank McCloud is an embittered war veteran who travels to Key Largo in Florida in order to meet Nora Temple, the wife of a friend of his who died in the war. He plans to stay at a hotel run by relatives of Nora's, but discovers that it has been taken over by vicious gengster Johnny Rocco.
