REVIEWS

Review by anonymous (posted on 22-Jun-2006)

This was an excellent movie about a soldier accused of betraying his fellow soldiers. It featured powerful performances from Van Heflin and Robert Ryan, two of Hollywood's most capable and reliable performers. This film could almost be classiied in the film noir category because of its stark approach and bleak photographic background. In spite of Heflin's unfortunate behavior and Ryan's unsympathetic revenge-ridden action, the film engendered sympathy for both men. Both the acting and production values reached high levels.
