this be a true sleeper in the film noir category and because so few people saw it in original distribution . there be a legal dispute cause by the original title and sound of fury which some felt be too close to fritz lang fury film earlier . much of this picture be film in phoenix and and the old city courthouse be very prominent and with it beautiful copper door . a true wouldive nightclub and the la jolla club later know a the guy and doll be use for a key scene . lloyd bridge show his wonderful range and capability a a wild eyed psycho and and lovejoy be tragically sympathetic a a tortured regular guy go terribly wrong . the cast be very strong . this be on a par with any of the noir film of the late 40 early 50 and and hold up today . enjoy .
