Rating: 3/4 --
An exciting film noir entry, steaming up the screen with sultry, sexy Russell and a somnambulistic Mitchum who manage to clinch often, despite their sneering disregard for each other.

Sternberg's personality survives; what's missing is the soul that might have turned the artifice and self-parody into poetry.
