We had to shut if off several minutes into the movie. The picture is so dark you don't even realize the car is a convertible until several minutes into the movie. Very frustrating.

THIS WAS A GOOD FIM. THE PRINT WAS POOR AND WORN. KNOWING THAT, I WOULD STILL RECOMMEND THIS FILM TO PEOPLE THAT ENJOY A GOOD PULP STORY. THE LEAD PROTAGONIST WAS A DOOZY OF A GAL WHO KNEW ALL THE ANGLES. SHE WAS A PLEASURE TO WATCH AS SHE WEAVED HER TANGLED WEB OF LIES AND DECIET. AS AN ADDED BONUS, THERE WAS A FILM ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE DISK CALLED "HOODLUM", AN OLD BLACK AND WHITE GANGSTER MOVIE ABOUT A BANK HEIST. THE PICTURE QUALITY WAS NOT GOOD BUT IT WAS WATCHABLE. OVER ALL I WOULD RECOMMEND THESE FILMS. RENT IT TODAY ITS A 2 FOR ONE DEAL. Close this Review

Lizabeth Scott lacks the charm of most leading ladies of the era. This was the first movie I have ever seen her in and I was mesmerized at how unappealing and unconvincing she is. I like the plot but her acting is atrocious. Her deep monotone voice is horrible. Sexy it isn't. She's no Lauren Becall. I never heard of her until this movie. I had a certain opinion about her personal life based on the way she looks and acts in this movie. Then I did a little research and my opinion coincides with the rumors which may be untrue.
I think this movie would have been better with a different actress. Close this Review

The picture quality of the DVD was bad and a lot of the lines were clipped or skipped, so it is hard to judge this movie. The story line was pretty good, but the dialogue was horrible. I might give it another try if I could actually watch it "error-free." Close this Review
