Viewing Notes

Having just seen a Cornel Wilde film last night I was pleasantly surprised to find another film starring him on Instawatch. Found it searching for more movies featuring Lee Van Cleef for my LVC project. Great noir flick that hits on all the right beats. Def worth checking out.

Note: my first official film for my Angel Eyes LVC Project.
