This has a very pulpy quality, which makes it an enjoyable watch despite the rather implausible way the story unfolds. The flashbacks are neat, too, with each one offering a different POV from a different character, breaking up what otherwise would be a very formulaic murder-mystery (go here, talk to someone, get fed a clue, repeat for 90 minutes).

Pretty routine mystery/thriller touching on a common noir theme: the plight of ex-GI's. Nothing about it stands out, but it's not a bad way to kill an hour and a half. Lead actor Gordon MacRae is the spitting image of Matt LeBlanc, which I found very distracting. I kept waiting for Chandler to burst in and say something sarcastic. I wished there was more Edmond O'Brien, I've become very fond of him. Not too much else to say about this one... a decent noir that lacks distinction.
