Crossfire
An anti-Semitic war veteran (Robert Ryan) goes on a murderous rampage. Edward Dmytryk's 1947 film was widely praised for its insights into racial hatred, though in Richard Brooks's original novel the victim was a homosexual. While the film remains a respectable thriller, only Ryan's crafty, quietly deranged performance lifts it out of the ordinary. With Robert Mitchum, Robert Young, and Gloria Grahame. 86 min. |
