| Tough, critically acclaimed thriller, with plenty of tension and suspense (the first time you see it, at least). It's stylish, if superficial, and Burt Lancaster, Edmond O'Brien and Ava Gardner (as the obligatory femme fatale) give solid performances. Miklos Rozsa's Oscar-nominated score later became famous through the Dragnet television series.Arthur Hilton's editing was also nominated. Remade in 1964. |
