Country: US
Technical: bw 73m
Director: Anthony Mann
Cast: Steve Brodie, Audrey Long, Raymond Burr, Jason Robards
Synopsis:
A truck driver is contacted by hoodlums who want him to transport stolen goods, but he refuses to play ball.
Review:
Fast-moving B feature with a solid G.I. hero, a wholesome blonde of godfearing immigrant stock, and a brooding villain in the hulking form of Raymond Burr. Robards plays a police lieutenant with a nice line in Italianate sarcasm. Tough and in no doubt as to the correct path to follow, should demobbed soldiers be tempted into crime.
