Even though I've seen this film a few times, it still grabs hold and won't let go until the end. Ellroy's commentary sounded like one that Tim Carey might give for the movie.Walker Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16089880902426182100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1279530091641272518.post-24080312963700999542011-10-19T08:26:49.859-04:002011-10-19T08:26:49.859-04:00Thanks Uncle Sam and Johnny, I really appreciate t...Thanks Uncle Sam and Johnny, I really appreciate the comments. It just occurred to me that this was the first time I've ever actually listened to a DVD commentary! I'm sure that I'm unusual in that regard, but I've never been drawn to them. In this instance I heard the back and forth between Muller and Ellroy was entertaining, so I thought I'd give it a go — now I think I'll go back through my DVD collection and see if anything else prods at me.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07715057178983752370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1279530091641272518.post-50779776247165461822011-10-19T05:10:00.627-04:002011-10-19T05:10:00.627-04:00A truly wonderful (and accurate) review, Mark!
T...A truly wonderful (and accurate) review, Mark! <br /><br />This film truly is everything you say it is, and I've been feverishly recommending it to friends ever since I viewed it in Volume 4 of the 'Film Noir Classic Collection' (and the Muller/Ellroy DVD commentary is a complete riot in itself!). <br /><br />Agreed: Sterling Hayden's best performance, amidst a solid list of terrific performances.johnny6666https://www.blogger.com/profile/16749738500273163297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1279530091641272518.post-13198823615222630842011-10-19T00:04:36.513-04:002011-10-19T00:04:36.513-04:00Mark, it really is great stuff.
