Viewing Notes

First film on Day 4 of the Noir City Chicago 6 film festival. Was pretty stoked to see this on the big screen and it delivers. Super snappy dialogue in an otherwise bleak women in prison flick. Really great characters surrounding Eleanor Parker, who is brilliant as she goes through a full spectrum of emotions. Yet another highlight from Noir City, which has been great this year.
