Sin Town is a 1942 American Western film directed by Ray Enright and starring Constance Bennett, Broderick Crawford and Patric Knowles.
The trio of Director Enright, Crawford, and Gwynne collaborated on another film the same year, "Men of Texas," which also revolves, to some extent, around the newspaper industry.
The duo quickly embeds themselves in the town's sole gambling hub after forcibly ousting its owner, Rock Delaney.
Nonetheless, Delaney, backed by his crew, makes a comeback, prompting McNair and Allen to seek opportunities elsewhere.
According to the New York Times on July 31, 1942, Universal has signed Constance Bennett to play the feminine lead in Sin Town, a story of an oil-boom community, and the movie originally was planned for Marlene Dietrich.
