Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis half-hour short was the first movie Joseph Losey made under his own name since being blacklisted in Hollywood, and the first film he made in CinemaScope. He made the film simply to keep working and did not enjoy the experience, describing Sir Donald Wolfit as "an even bigger pain in the ass than Paul Muni, if that's possible".
Featured review
After a man robs a casino disguised as a woman (the *man* was disguised as a woman, not the casino, silly!), he escapes to the beach with his co-hort, whom he kills. In the process, he is shot in the arm. He wanders around the beach until he finds a shack. There he meets an interesting recluse who holds the key to his future.
This was a weird one. 3/4 of it feels like the middle act of a movie, but then has a conclusive ending. The man in the shack also has a secret that's revealed at the end, but it's not so much revealed as "duh"-inducing. Still, an interesting, well performed, fairly entertaining short.
