Steve D 04/02/2023 Baxter is as good as ever but you have seen it done too many times before. See more 03/29/2016 Garden variety noir but Baxter gives it all she's got to make the material better than it is. She gets very little assistance from Sterling Hayden giving his usual block of wood performance but John Hoyt is properly contemptible as her partner in crime/nemesis. See more 05/13/2015 good but convoluted thriller See more 09/22/2013 Tough people populating a tough story of manipulation and double dealing. Some fun character performances surround a typically stony Sterling Hayden. Jesse White, who later became familiar as "The Maytag Repairman" does a nice turn as a P.I. See more Read all reviews
