They marry and live the high life for awhile. He gets set up and is sent to Alcatraz on charges of racketeering, for ten years. She suspects his lawyer Slant Kolma (Lloyd Nolan) having a hand in this problem. She rents an apartment across San Francisco Bay with a view of the prison. She is befriended by another woman Mary Bogale (Gladys George)whose husband is also jailed but also wants to have fun. One night they meet a man Tim Nolan (Walter Pidgeon) who becomes attracted by Brenda and starts pursuing her, much to her annoyance. He finally wins her over. However, she still loves her husband. Kolma tries to blackmail her and trap her, having sold off her jewelry for his "defense". He is jealous because he saw her at a restaurant with Tim. Brenda finally confides in Mary and tells her about her problems. She returns to singing to earn money. When she visits her husband in jail, that shyster lawyer is waiting for her. She hides the truth from Steve about the money being gone. Tim sees her singing at the nightclub and talking with customers. He continues to pursue her but although she has feelings for Tim, she wants to be faithful to her husband because she knows her love is the only thing that helps him get through his days. The treacherous lawyer is so full of jealousy, he goes to tell Steve about Brenda and Tim. Desperate, Steve escapes and looks for Brenda. He tries to kill her but Tim arrives in time with a gun and tells Steve about the lawyer setting him up and stealing their money. He escapes the nightclub and he tells Brenda to wait for him and at a street corner. He goes looking for the lawyer and finds him and kills him. Then returns to the bay waterfront, swims out and allows the prison posse trolling the water to capture him. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_House_Across_the_Bay&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/George_Raft" title="George Raft">George Raft</a> as Steve Larwitt</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Joan_Bennett" title="Joan Bennett">Joan Bennett</a> as Brenda Bentley</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Lloyd_Nolan" title="Lloyd Nolan">Lloyd Nolan</a> as Slant Kolma</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Walter_Pidgeon" title="Walter Pidgeon">Walter Pidgeon</a> as Tim Nolan</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Gladys_George" title="Gladys George">Gladys George</a> as Mary Bogel</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Peggy_Shannon" title="Peggy Shannon">Peggy Shannon</a> as Alice</li> <li><a href="/wiki/June_Knight" title="June Knight">June Knight</a> as Bebe</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Max_Wagner" title="Max Wagner">Max Wagner</a> as Jim</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Joe_Sawyer" title="Joe Sawyer">Joe Sawyer</a> as Charley</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Cy_Kendall" title="Cy Kendall">Cy Kendall</a> as Crawley</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Joseph_Crehan" title="Joseph Crehan">Joseph Crehan</a> as Federal Man</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Edward_Fielding" title="Edward Fielding">Edward Fielding</a> as Judge</li> <li><a href="/wiki/James_Craig_(actor)" title="James Craig (actor)">James Craig</a> as Brenda's Friend (uncredited)</li> <li><a href="/wiki/James_Farley_(actor)" title="James Farley (actor)">James Farley</a> as Prison Guard (uncredited)</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Production">Production</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_House_Across_the_Bay&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Production"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The film was based on an original story by <a href="/wiki/Myles_Connolly" title="Myles Connolly">Myles Connolly</a>.
