Viewing Notes
Poverty Row film back when someone was sent to death row they were immediately scheduled for execution. LOL
The TMDb description isn’t accurate. The woman isn’t recounting her “last mile” rather it’s the criminologist reading the notes to a room of interested parties about the case. This IMDb synopsis is better:
“A young woman is on Death Row for the murder of a man who was blackmailing her family, although she claims she was framed. Her fiance’, a doctor who is conducting experiments on reviving the dead, also happens to be the state’s executioner, and is assigned to pull the switch when she is strapped into the electric chair. A famous criminologist, believing her to be innocent, rushes to investigate the case and clear her before her execution date.”
