Cast

Glenn Ford Gloria Grahame

Credits

Written by: Alfred Hayes

Plot

A railway worker is drawn into a murder.

Sinekatalog’s take

Fritz Lang's railway noir draws Glenn Ford's engineer into Gloria Grahame's murderous marriage. Tense and moody, it is a hard-edged remake of La Bête humaine with Grahame excellent as a femme fatale.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
