Tyrone Power considered this his best performance ever;and, I totally agree.

Excellent movie, follows the novel very closely. A clinic in acting, down to the smallest part. Very bleak and dark.

Interesting trivia: both the novelist and the director committed suicide.

[Valkyrie Ziege]

; William Lindsay Gresham committed suicide on 14 September 1962 as cancer was incurable back then, and he did so to release himself, and his loved ones, from lingering suffering. Edmond Goulding died, 24 December 1959, during heart surgery, which was, unfortunately, common back then.

[Nicholas Ledner]

"How did he get so low?" "He tried to reach too high."

@ glaciarxx She is actress Coleen Gray. One of her well known movies is "Kansas City Confidential". It is now in public domain and worth watching :) She was one of Hollywood's most underrated actress with great talent and beauty. Appeared mostly in noir films of 1940s.

This was made when they had true stars in Hollywood. Now we've got trash like Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler.

[MrRazorblade999]

The best film noir ever, and I've seen them all (well, at least them released on dvd). Criminally undrerrated.

I agree this was a great performance and deserved more support.
