An ex-hood hopes to start a new life under an assumed name in a small town but his past catches up with him when an old crime-buddy asks him to help with a casino heist.

Walk Softly, Stranger became RKO’s biggest moneyloser of 1950 – US$775,000 in the red. It became the last RKO film to carry a Dore Schary credit (Schary left RKO in 1948, once Howard Hughes took over the studio; he became MGM’s studio chief in 1951), and the last release of a co-production between the studio and Selznick’s Vanguard Films.
