Viewing Notes
A great late noir with amazing location shots in and around San Francisco, and not just the typical Golden Gate Bridge stuff. It really gives you a sense of what the city was like in the late ‘50s.
Eli Wallach tears it up as a murderous psychopath. It’s great to watch him act in his younger years! I also recently saw him in Lord Jim as well.
