Marked Men (1940)
4/10
Watch this for the German shepherd
24 November 2007
The dog plays an important role. He has a handsome face, not a great build. The thing is: He isn't even listed in the credits.

The film itself is a modest Western being passed off as a film noir. OK: It starts with a prison break. A guy hides out. But he hides out in Tempe, Arizona. I felt this to be a Western.

It isn't bad. It isn't memorable either. Isabel Jewell plays the sympathetic woman who meets the escapee. Enough of the plot. No spoilers here.

The acting is pretty basic. I didn't see a good print but I didn't have the sense I was missing out on great cinematography.

It's your call, really. And the dog, who is called Wolf, is appealing.
