Man, the script is just gorgeous. I love the conversational sparring. The framing shots are also gorgeous.

[@orchardist6559]

So pleased that Paul Henreid liked the script so much that he put the money for it to be made. Thank you for posting.

[@michaelsinclair3321]

paul probably liked it so much because he knew it would be a career boost for him to do it OR perhaps extend his range as a actor not to mention credit to him as a producer

[@johnallen2771]

Love the dramatics of the old film noir movies. So much more in depth than modern TV. In fact, I haven't really watched TV in at least 10 years. It's all on the internet. Incidentally, it's still possible to loose yourself in our society. There have even been books written about how to do it. So if life gets too difficult where you are just remember that you can start a new life whenever you want to in a new town. There's plenty of towns in America where you can get lost. If you're in the dope racket and want out, just split and start all over again. You can do it if you really want to.

Life must have been alot better in the 40s and 50s. People were so innocent it seems. Or maybe just naive IDK. I can't imagine .17 cents for a gallon of gas. Did everybody smoke back then? Its pretty rare to see someone that was born in the 30s using a computer. Stay safe Dian you rock...

[@a.d.2719]

Paul Henreid was so handsome. I love him!

[@None-zc5vg]

Henreid was from a rich Austrian Jewish banking family and heg left Europe via England ahead of Hitler: he was lucky enough to get some romantic leads when at Warner Bros. but he wasn't needed as such after the war and he tried to shoehorn his aristocratic presence into cheap 'noir-era' thrillers like this one: he had plenty of work but it was a slide to the bottom.

[@andyyelbid]

Great Noir, even if filled with plot holes; Still made for an enjoyable movie, acted well with all the great noir tropes. He certainly embraced the ciggies once he got started.Thanks PF.

[@Crambo90ify]

Second noir plot involving mistaken identity. Causes me to wonder what the obsession was with body doubles in the 40s. Maybe Freud could tell us. On another note, love Joan Bennett.

[@goldstein321]

I think Ms. Bennett's talent was not fully shown in this particular film. Being one of the shinning stars in Hollywood at that time, she could easily bring much more depth and psychological dimension to her character. But her blue eyes, one could get lost on them!! Otherwise, a great film to watch. Thank you PizzaFlix

[@scottjustscott127]

I enjoyed seeing this movie again. Bennett could be hilarious with some of her dialogue. Henreid was a real chain cancer stick smoker. I checked to see what he died from and it wasn't lung cancer and surprised it wasn't. It was a stroke along with pneumonia. I think both were related to all the puffs he took in movies.

[@ronmcgill9366]

Paul Henreid is an American heavy, too include gangster language. Not quite sure if he fits. What does fit is the character played by Joan Bennet. The music is good too. The story is clever. Ultimately however, just terrific film noir! It's just so hard to see Henreid in anything other than Casablanca!

Have seen this at least four times and never thought about that huuuuge logic gap there. If they would have found him as "Bartok", why shouldn't they just have thought of that "Bartok" as a cover identity? It makes not too much sense actually.

[@laurnaleto4622]

Preposterous yet engaging movie. Trials of assuming an identity is not a fresh idea; Bette Davis tried in the 1946 "A Stolen Life." Great noir achieved by Alton, ASC, who won an Academy Award for "An American in Paris." Also composer Charles Previn, cousin of Andre. First time I have seen a film need two Westmores, but the scars and stars looked great. The Hollywood make-up dynasty begun by George in 1917 who trained his six sons, thus lasting over 100 yrs, four generations, at least 11 frequently honored male make-up artists. Michael continues today, known for Star Trek and the reality program "Faces Off."

@Teresa S You clearly don't know the definition of one-dimensional! He successfully worked stamping papers and doing deliveries, as a mechanic and as a psychoanalyst. He was also a thief, a gang boss and a surgeon. A one-dimensional character would only've been able to do one of those things. Joan Bennett's charcter was the opposite of naive; she was cynical, world-weary and resigned to life being terrible.
