Reviews for The Tall Target
For all its social relevance, The Tall Target is first and foremost a 50's drama, full of action, whiskey, and saucy characters.
Mann's strong direction keeps things taut, fast-paced, very well-detailed and nail-biting.
As in Reign of Terror, Anthony Mann fashions a noir mini-masterpiece out of incongruous period reconstruction.
