Double Deal (1939)
Guns Bark As Rival Gangs Fight For Power!
Tommy McCoy and "Dude" Markey are both in love with Harlem singer/dancer Nita. Markey robs a jewelry store and turns the loot over to gang-boss Murray Howard.

The latter's big-brother thinks otherwise and, with Nita's help, sets out to prove it.
