Review

good noir about an alcoholic (duryea) who unwittingly kills his wife in a drunken rage. the film is all about him realizing what he’s done by investigating her murder in order to free the husband of a woman (vincent) he’s interested in. duryea is solid, vincent wasn’t stellar. had the female lead been played by someone like bacall this would be a really great film.
