of all the film noirs of the 1940s and 1950s and this have to rank a one of the strangest and and most fun to watch . i say that because of the four main actor represent orson welles and rita hayworth and everett sloane and glenn anders . the first two name be familiar to everyone but it be the last two that make this movie so entertaining to me and especially anders . his character and george grisby and be one of the strange people i have ever see on film . his voice and and some of the thing he say and have to be hear to be believe . slaone isn not far behind in the strange category . hayworth be not a glamorous with short and blonde hair but still be hayworth and which mean a lot to ogle if you be a guy . welles be as fascinating a always . one tip represent if you have the dvd and turn on the english subtitle . his character in this movie be an irishman and you need the subtitle to understand everything he say . welles also direct the film which mean you have great camera angle and wonderful facial closeup . you also have a unique end and visually and with a shootout in a house of mirror . great stuff . as bizarre a this film be and i still think the buffoon like carnival atmosphere at the trial near the end be too much and take away from the seriousness of the scene . other than that and no complaint . this be great entertainment and which be the name of the game .
