I watched this on a big mob movies collection ( Most of them are crap )and the imdb ratings were much higher than the others so I decided to watch this.

My curiosity was piqued after constantly seeing screencaps of that iconic final scene, so I decided to watch it.
shareAbout 20 years ago I read the title in Danny Peary's book, "Guide for the Film Fanatic", then I went to see it at a repertory theater in Vienna, Austria, where I was living. I just got the Geneon DVD, and I wish someone would issue it in a better quality DVD.
shareFirst saw it on television when I was a teenager. I watched anything that was B&W. Wow!

Because my film class is studying a unit on noir films, I surfed the web for some good ones and read some good things about the big combo's lighting/cinematography. The Screenshots of the final scene sillhouetes also interested me, so I checked it out.
shareIt was on tv a few days ago. I dont watch many movies but for some reason I love old movies so I decided to watch and I loved it.
shareThe ABC here in Australia plays old black and white films every weekday night around 1am... I normally use my tv as a light so I can get from my lightswitch to my bed without bashing into everything and this started as I was crawling under my covers...
Can't manage to look away XD

I bought an LP speed VHS tape of this movie years ago at a video store. Saw it, enjoyed it & still have that old tape. Bought the DVD last year. The movie? It's pretty good....

I really like this movie. I'm watching it now as I type. 9:45pm in Houston, ona Sunday Night. I downloaded it from the internet. Free. Has a lot of plot holes and I don't buy the leaps of faith required to make things work. Just saw the seen with a review of breakfast, Rita is dead in the morgue with 11 bullets and he read the paper while he had breakfast.
I still say its a great movie. 9:54pm Mr Brown has his lobster and Mingo is still alive. Mingo survived the cigar box bomb.
10:00pm the end.
I got it from the Internet Archive and later realized I had already downloaded it from Stage 6 before it closed down, so I ended up watching that one. Excellent film noir! Does anyone know where you can get the opening theme, I suppose by David Raskin? That's an amazing piece, an instant classic, which is so fitting the film's genre.
