7/10
Gig Young in an under-appreciated role
11 May 2008
A fine movie underplayed by all except Tony Francisco who took his part to am outstanding performance. Acting in his role to levels we rarely see him in.

The role by Hayworth was purposely underacted and she became a minor role in the movie but was quite effective.

What impressed me most was Young's character as a "Mommy's" boy who came to his own through the film.

I have always liked Young and this might have been his best dramatic movie of his career even though his part was minimalised through most of the movie.

& yes, he won fair maiden.

A full 7/10 and maybe an 8.

Watch and enjoy!!!!

p.s. It might not have been near as good in color. B&W was perfect.
