THE MAN WHO WANTED TO DlE...
Ernest Hemingway s spare, Iaconic short story about two professionaI kiIIers and their encounter with a mysteriously unresisting victim was significantly expanded into this aIl-time film noir classic, which Hemingway said was the first adaptation of his work that he reaIly admired.
As washed-up boxer turned hitman victim OIe Swede Andreson, Burt Lancaster made his screen debut, and was catapuIted to instant stardom, not least for the screen chemistry that he showed opposite suItry Ava Gardner, whose Kitty CoIIins is the very personification of the femme fataIe.
German émigré Robert Siodmak was one of the filmmakers who helped create fiIm noir, and EIwood Bredell s high-contrast cinematography, aIl harsh Iighting and Iong shadows, eIevates the fiIm far above a conventional crime drama. But even on that Ievel it s a first-rate demonstration of how to maintain narrative tension, with the flashback structure withholding cruciaI details untiI almost the very end.
