About
If you enjoy classic noir mysteries with nightclubs, blackmail, and a race-against-time investigation, this should hit the spot, especially if you like Lady in the Lake or The Verdict; Not for you if slow pacing or heavy drinking themes bother you.
Pros: moody noir atmosphere; strong lead performances; suspenseful mystery turns | Cons: occasional slow stretches; some melodrama; overlong musical interludes
