      Byron T Utterly lacking in suspense, despite a score that tries its best to keep things revved up. To boot, the ever-wooden George Raft comes across as a poor man's Humphrey Bogart. The only reason to see this "C" movie is to watch a beautiful and talented Italian actress outshine everyone else. Her name: Gianna Maria Canale. Too bad she didn't have better material to work with. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
