Special Features: Introduction by Eddie Muller
Nearing the end of his legendary directing career, Michael Curtiz produced and directed this intricately plotted thriller in which tony seductress Paulie Nevins (Carol Omhart) and her lover (Tom Tryon), overhearing plans for a jewel robbery, hatch a scheme to deliver themselves from Paulie's possessive husband (James Gregory). The film features "discoveries" Ohmart, Tryon and Broadway star Elaine Stritch (in her first film role), plus Nat King Cole singing "Never Let Me Go" in the Crystal Room of the Beverly Hills Hotel. You'll only see this at Noir City! (Note courtesy of Noir City.) DIR/PROD Michael Curtiz; SCR Alford Van Ronkel, Frank Tashlin, John Meredyth Lucas. U.S., 1956, b&w, 95 min. NOT RATED
