Southside 1-1000



Worthwhile Noir
On the down side, Don Defore as the lead is milk-and-cookies, not anyone's first choice as the dynamic leading-man type. It's those who reside on the dark side that make this film worthwhile, Morris Ankrum as the ailing counterfeiter, Andrea King as his corrupted daughter, and in a bit part Joseph Turkel, a favorite of Kubrick's best remembered as Tyrell in BLADE RUNNER. Not an A noir by any stretch, I still think it has its virtues. At the right price this one's a keeper.
