With a great screenplay by Richard Murphy and Ben Hecht, this Noir stands out in just about every other aspect as well. Richard Conte is a sympathetic hood hunted by Victor Mature, who plays a conflicted police Lt. here. His role is not unlike that in Kiss of Death, but with a degree less unambiguous sympathy to balance with Conte's more family-oriented sociopath. Both leads are excellent, as is the supporting cast. Winters, Betty Garde and Debra Paget are great, but Hope Emerson plays the scheming Rose with terrific menace. Asphyxiation fetishists will greatly enjoy the lingering focus on her giant hands in a particularly fun scene with Mature. Nice NY location cinematography by Lloyd Ahern and a spectacular Alfred Newman score round things out. This is available in several versions, but badly deserving of the Criterion treatment.

The beauty of Siodmak's film is how it objectively observes how a man acts with the spectre of death on his shoulder.

The sequences on the rainy, neon-lit streets of downtown Manhattan are brought off with exhilarating flair and the two men's closeup confrontations have power and punch.

Riveting example of Siodmak's skill not only in transforming indifferent material, but in giving the feel of studio noir to location shooting.
