The New York Times says, "In many ways "Criss Cross" is a suspenseful action picture, due to the resourceful directing of Robert Siodmak." The New Yorker calls it an "exemplary film noir".

At first glance at the blog title I thought it was about that magician 😺
ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of magicians and didn't even know there was one by that name lol
DeleteThis sounds delightful. I hope I find time to watch it tonight, since I also want to watch Oh Mr. Porter, which I didn't find time to watch last night.
ReplyDeleteThe cast is interesting, I think.
DeleteWow. a 100% score on rotten tomatoes. It must be worth a watch. Happy almost weekend. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteI had never heard of it before, but I'm glad I came across it.
DeleteLooks like it would be pretty good. Tony Curtis isn't even a headliner. Must have been very young with a small part. :)
ReplyDeleteHis uncredited screen debut.
DeleteThanks for sharing, I've added it to my ever growing watch later list. Winter should bring more time to sit in the armchair and TV binge! Valerie
