I liked Renoir's handling of the material more. It's funnier and doesn't have such a heavy-handed moralistic conclusion. Lang's films is hampered by production codes. All criminals must be punished. The prostitute and pimp of La Chienne are replaced by a catalog model and her mildly abusive fiancé. When considered in contrast, I can't help but feel I'm being fed something watered down. Still, Lang's movie is well done and Robinson is almost as good as Simon as the sad sack protagonist.

The story is quite contrived, and the characters two-dimensional. The script in general isn't very good. The strength lies in a few of the little details. Bits of it shine in a way I can't put my finger on. It's certainly carefully made, but still very overrated.

Well-directed, sharp and laden, it's a solid slice of film noir from the mid-40s. Fritz Lang handle the medium with an inexhaustible elegance and a visible assertiveness; this is sublime filmmaking.

One of the saddest and most frightening movies I've ever seen. It's so outrageous and believable that I couldn't help but be sucked into it's darkness. Brilliant performances all around in this strange film of awkward images.

Quite interesting, but very uneven: from lighthearted 'comedy' to a creepy ending.

Eddie G brings an otherwise mediocre Noir up to greatness with a fantastic against-type role.
