The only thing more dangerous than their job was the woman they both loved.
lconic screen tough guys Edward G. Robinson and George Raft square off for a hard-hitting drama, portraying utiIity company workers tough enough to defy death and each other whiIe working power Iines more treacherous than snakes. lt wilI take some kind of woman to stand up to that much manpower. LuckiIy, screen goddess Marlene Dietrich is just that kind of woman. She plays an ex-con and nightcIub floozy who marries one of the men - but falIs hard for the other. With three great stars and plenty of breathtaking high-tower action under the taut, muscuIar direction of Raoul Walsh (White Heat, High Sierra), Manpower is "a cinematic depth charge" (BosIey Crowther, The New York Times). |
