C'mon, if it's done by Fritz Lang you know it's going to be superb, and this movie was.
I just love the concept, a movie made about what happens while your normal, everyday people are tucked up in bed.
The results are tremendous. You have Vincent Price as the heir to a newpaper, television station and news service via wire. Instead of deciding for himself who should run the divisions he lets the heads of each one fight it out amoungst themselves.
Each head has one specific person fighting their corner, and Dana Andrews is one of them.
It's just a wonderful film, fair enough it's a bit later than your typical film noir but the performances are so gritty and realistic that you wouldn't have a clue. I loved it. More from Mr Fritz Lang, he's a genius.
