This is a soap opera movie of sorts. The plot twists and dialog at times is HIGHLY reminiscent of a soap. However, due to really good acting, particularly by Robert Ryan and Zachary Scott, this movie rises a little above the plot and makes it worth watching. Now, I cannot imagine teens or those with a need for explosions and kooky dialog being impressed by the film and there are no scantily-clad bimbos either. But, for someone who appreciates good acting and older movies, it is very good. Should you rush out to rent it? Probably not. But should it come on Turner Classic Movies or some other channel, I recommend you give it a look. It's worth it.
