World Film Review Crisp Dialogue Lifts Police Thriller

A 20th Century Fox production directed by William Wellman stars Dana Andrews and Gene Tierney with Gary Merrill. The plot follows a detective who uses fists, is reprimanded, then kills a murder suspect. He hides the crime while falling for the widow as the case implicates her father. The screenplay by Ben Hecht is tight and sharp, though Andrews is not at his best as the killer cop. The film builds to a logical suspenseful conclusion and portrays a metropolitan police force with flaws.
