Buried Alive (1939) follows the tumultuous journey of a prison trustee who intervenes in a bar fight to save a disheartened executioner. However, a tabloid reporter, who instigated the altercation, falsely accuses the trustee, leading to his loss of parole and a deepening sense of bitterness. The trustee is then wrongfully blamed for the murder of a prison guard, setting off a chain of events that further complicates his life. The narrative revolves around the trustee's struggles as he faces the consequences of being framed by both the reporter and a fellow inmate, who relentlessly work to harm his reputation. The story does not delve into the reasons behind the trustee's imprisonment, adding layers of mystery and injustice to his plight. In a surprising twist, not only does a nurse believe in his innocence, but so does the warden and the executioner, who become unexpected allies in his quest for justice.
