* This is what got me into film-noir. Before that, I thought all film-noir was bad narration by a private detective who smacks his love interest at least once. Some are, but many of these aren't. This movie is actually a bit surreal.
** This was the first Burt Lancaster movie I ever saw. Then I saw him in a lot of other movies where he was sort of an asshole or uptight. So I assumed that was the type he played. Then I saw The Rose Tattoo and was very confused.
