this be another of the many b minus movie tag a film noir in the hope of generate some interest in something that be devoid of it . all aspect of the film script and acting and direction be mediocre . the acting by the three lead be wooden . i guess john dall be expect to go place in the movie business but then someone realise he have little talent and therefore end up do tv work . lee j cobb who be usually terrific can not rise above the poor script and poor direction . jane wyatt be suppose to be a femme fatale but come nowhere near convince the viewer . the movie do have two of the strange look car that i have ever see and the one in which john dall go after lee j cobb be particularly strange . the dvd transfer be typical alpha .
