Viewing Notes

Movie #2 for Noirvember

Not many peaks in this as it meanders along. Marie Windsor heats things up but she’s not in this nearly enough. It’s more or less intrigue-lite for film noir but it features some nice locations and the beautiful Hawaii as the backdrop. Evelyn Keyes is capable to keep the story moving forward and Elsa Lanchester is fun.
