Dassin's appreciation of topless torsos give a special piquancy to the last line of Hellinger's narration in his docu-drama: "There are eight million stories in the naked city.

In a time when Hollywood movies rarely revealed much of their male stars below the collar, Pedro went topless in nearly every film, displaying the bulky muscularity he was so proud of. You could count on a scene where he had to change clothes, or wash up. He'd ripple his biceps on a prison work gang, get his top ripped off in a fight. In Angelitos Negros...
