Robert Siodmak’s New York-set film noir is by turns murky and beautiful, with the city itself made into a key character through fantastic location work. The story is a familiar one, focusing on two men who grew up together, now on opposite sides of the law. The only thing Marty Rome cares about is his girl Teena. Facing execution and recovering from a gunshot to the leg, Rome escapes to save her from a crooked lawyer who wants to implicate her in a crime. Suspenseful rain-soaked sequences in neon-lit Manhattan streets make this a touchstone for countless modern film noirs.
