This was terrific, sympathetic performance by Mature. While Richard Widmark’s creepy, unsettling performance got most of the press, it’s Mature who anchors the film, giving audiences somebody to root for, no matter how the cards were stacked against him.

Widmark's laugh is priceless. Especially with his cheshire grin with the huge overbite. Reminds me of that other blonde cad actor with the sing songy voice, who was in the film with Edward G Robinson about that painting in the window, and the cad was the boyfriend who pretended his girl painted the pictures but Robinson really painted them.

Great movie, great acting. Richard Whitmark's character, Udo, was creepy. Gave me the chills. The role reminded me of the Riddler's character in the 1960s Batman series. Widmark however modeled his Udo character after the Batman comics archenemy, the Joker. Frank Gorshin, who played the Riddler in the TV series, modeled his deranged cackle after Widmark's Udo.

One of Mature’s best screen portrayals & here for the first time is Widmark in an astonishing performance that might have netted him an Oscar had he not been up against Santa Claus (Edmund Gwenn) that same year. A real classic with Colleen Grey as appealing as always as Mature’s new wife. She was also in another memorable noir,NIGHTMARE ALLEY, that year. 1947 in fact has 3 of the best noirs of all, IMO, the third being OUT OF THE PAST.

In "Kiss of Death," her makeup artist was Ben Nye, one of the geniuses of old Hollywood who made women look ethereal and gorgeous beyond compare ... but always appropriate to the character. He and the other greats of that era (the Westmore brothers especially) were wonderful and really shaped the look of American woman IMHO.

His demeanor is of that kind of person who lets his "boys" do the real wet work. But he is a psycho and his giggly mouthful of teeth just do not help this picture's believability. His giggling sounds really familiar.
