Nicely done melodramatic noir from Andre De Toth

Dick Powell is great in this little seen noir. The film itself is a good example of the genre. No happy ending. No easy resolutions. Powell's character gets himself into a sticky situation with no way to go but down. The story is standard fare but it's this character that is the focus of attention here and gives the film an compelling edge. Here's a man who has everything - a nice house, a decent job and wife and kids. He risks it all by starting an affair. He wasn't satisfied with his life but like every noir - a little mistake is a heavy price to pay. The film lacks suspense or surprises but if you are looking for good performances and an intriguing character study - this film makes a good watch.

Noirish melodrama, worthwhile for Powell's disillusioned insurance man, depressed to be 'the backbone of American society.' This depiction of the post-war malaise again highlights the flaws in the capitalist system where some people with cut corners to get what they (are told by the American dream, they) want, such as Raymond Burr's detective using blackmail to get the girl, Smiley being in jail because of embezzlement. Desire and guilt are examined well here, unfortunately the film as a whole doesn't hold together.

One of the really great films about infidelity

De Toth's subversive look at the organization man gone astray--Powell protects Scott from Burr while Barr waits to get out of jail!!
