Intelligent, literate noir
I enjoyed this low-key noir for its intelligent plot and literate script. Dana Andrews is a detective who has already been reprimanded 12 (!)times for brutality (where are the lawsuits?) when he accidentally kills a suspect. The other cops are quick to point the finger at an old guy who just happens to be the father of the girl Andrews has just taken a hankering to. A Moral Dilemma raises its ugly head. Andrews & Gene Tierney are good, not great(but then whoever thought of these two as great actors?). And dontcha just love it when cops insult criminals by calling them "Mugs"? Shocking!
