Viewing Notes

An excellent film noir with lots of suspense. Joan Crawford received an Oscar nomination for her performance and it’s amazing how much she conveys without saying a word. Jack Palance is also great (and also received an Oscar nomination for Supporting Actor). And when sexy Gloria Grahame shows up, you know it’s trouble.
