Please help me with a noir


What is the movie where a guy is under surveilance but sneaks away for a rendez-vous at a ferry (at night) he goes in the front door of a little deco ticket building, and then runs up a ramp to make the boat, while his pursuer takes the elevator (or vice versa) all with very slick angles and lighting.

Being almost seven years later so you either know by now or no longer care but it sounds like the 1942 Hitchcock classic "Saboteur" with Bob Cummings and Priscilla Lane.

As the previous poster mentioned you probably don't care anymore, but it could also be I Confess (1953). I don't remember an elevator, but it is a film-noir type movie with a ferry rendez-vous.
