Russ G I'm a fan of the Noir genre even though most of them were made a decade or more before my birth in the mid 1950's, so I clicked on this from the TCM streaming site. Twenty or so minutes in I bailed because the premise was so ridiculous; could the two leads possibly be that stupid? BTW, I'm a fan of Susan Hayward though it's a real shame she took the embarrassing part in "Valley of the Dolls" at the tail end of her distinguished career.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review s r I gave it a shot, it was alright. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Okay little noir about Susan Hayward helping naive wide eyed sailor Paul Lukas clear his name when he's suspected of murder. It's a nicely shot little noir and has some good moments of suspense and action, but the the story seemed a bit muddled. Written by respected playwright Clifford Odets during his time slumming it as a Hollywood screenwriter, adapting a Cornell Woolrigh story. This was the lone theatrical film by director Harold Clurman, who was a respected stage director. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
