Viewing Notes

I watched this shortly after watching The Killers, another Burt Lancaster/Robert Siodmak collaboration.  Hugely entertaining film noir. 

Dan Duryea is one of my favorite screen villains, and Yvonne DeCarlo is a ravishing femme fatale.  Tony Curtis makes his screen debut (uncredited) in a few quick shots dancing with DeCarlo.
