I was expecting something wonderful from Robert Ryan and Nicholas Ray, but was sadly disappointed with this mediocre offering from 1951. The story of a nasty cop who goes off the rails and then discovers he is a human being after all is nothing original in film noir, and Ida Lupino as a blind and slightly pathetic do-gooder is annoying. About the best thing was the music; not a film you should watch if you are just being introduced to film noir.
