At the center of a storm of controversy upon its release for daring to address the subject of prostitution, TRAFFIC still wields a certain power over the viewer as it takes a "true crime" approach to vice in the Victorian era. Tucker skillfully guides viewers through various dens of iniquity, the processes of crime detection and finally to a dynamic climax in which the police attempt to bust the white slavery rackets.
