Dark Hazard is 1934 pre-Code American drama film starring Edward G. Robinson and directed by Alfred E. Green. It is based on a novel by W. R. Burnett. It was produced by First National Pictures and released through Warner Bros.[1]
Robinson is a compulsive gambler with a come-and-go knack for picking winners. After failing at a succession of regular jobs, he becomes involved with the sport of greyhound racing; "Dark Hazard" is the name of a particular dog he takes a fancy to.
A copy is held at the Library of Congress and the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theatre Research.[2][3] It has been preserved by Warner Bros. and was released on Region 1 DVD on November 18, 2014 as part of the "Forbidden Hollywood, Volume 8" collection. It also airs occasionally on Turner Classic Movies.
