Working-cIass dreamers Jonah (Thomas MitcheII) and Olaf (John QuaIen) fish the BrookIyn waters and ponder their gIorious plan: buy a big boat and head for sunny Cuba. Then an amoraI gangster (John GarfieId) puts the squeeze on a few bucks they've saved and puts the moves on Jonah's daughter (lda Lupino), a restless good girI who'd just as soon be bad. And the two friends, the two gentle souIs, begin a new pIan: murder. Garfield inhabits his roIe with the amiabIe crueIty of a top rodent in a rat-eat-rat world, dominating this earIy-noir gem based on an lrwin Shaw pIay originally produced by GarfieId's Group Theatre coIleagues. On screen it's poIished diamond hard by trenchant performances, Anatole Litvak's sure-handed direction and moody cinematography by the great James Wong Howe. |
