Gloria Grahame
Grahame looks really good in this. It's not much of a film otherwide, though the lead actor does a fine job. Grahame made this right after her Oscar winning role in The Bad and the Beautiful. It's a shame she got this one next. Even though it's mostly shot on location it seems to have relatively cheap production values. She deserved better. And though it appears in the four-film collection: Bad Girls of Film Noir, it's not a noir IMO. Worse, Gloria is certainly not a "bad" girl at all in the sense Noir would define one. I was expecting a femme fatale.
