Apr 14, 2020Another film noir gem that goes largely unnoticed by many fans of the genre. There are spectacular on-location scenes (New York), solid performances by the leads Victor Mature and Richard Conte and a storyline that treats the subject matter with depth and little notice to Hollywood tropes.Aldo G Super Reviewer
