...heater in a shoulder holster, and still operates out of an office that could qualify for urban renewal. But for this film, Director Paul Bogart (no kin) is just keeping down appearances. Whenever the plot calls for straight shooting, he is as crooked as a cop on the take, using sleazy trick photography and mannered techniques.
