...rococo and frequently incoherent gangster yarn extracted like a rotten tooth from an old Harold Robbins novel. Stiletto seems to have been written only to take a share of the profits made by such stylish thrillers as Point Blank and Bullitt.

...drug possession. By the time a judge dismissed the charges, Mits and his wife had been fired from their jobs, kicked out of their apartment, ordered to remove Grace's daughters from their school. When Danny argued entrapment and was found not guilty last June, Judge Walter Kowalski denounced the jury for "a travesty of justice...
