This is the greatest film noir it was so good I watched it twice in one day. Richard Conte is the king of film noir. Clever story & plot with many unexpected surprises. A bit far fetched & improbable but entertaining. I like how he turned the tables on the police & escaped in a patrol car & then stopped to help the 2 women fix their car. And when the car broke down they get into a station wagon & he crashes thru roadblocks & 2 motorcycles & the car is a total wreck & still running in the desert. Laughed my head off. Great movie.
Good location filming. Good story . My main gripe with the script is , why Richard Conte left it till near the end , to declare his innocence to the young lady ❓
Here's a movie challenge for everybody: How many films besides this one and The Salton Sea (2002) have been referenced or filmed in or near the Salton Sea?
Richard Conte what a guy. Good guy gets accused of a bad, bad crime. A couple of passionate kisses, a stolen cop car, a yappy dog, a nasty woman and a young lady ready to fall in love. Great movie with some actors that were around for a long time
Also, nobody commented about how a cop car pulls up behind him, both doors open up, both cops get out and walk up behind him and he hears NOTHING in the silence of the desert.
Are we just going to ignore how Wanda Hendrix’s dress color kept charging colors drastically from very light to very dark in the dessert when Joan Bennett drives away?
“I was with a lady in Vegas and I’ve got an empty wallet to prove it”. “I dunno, have you ever been contaminated by a 45 ?”.----“We were somewhere out of Barstow when the drugs began to take hold”…..Hunter S Thompson.
A thriller full of thrills, twists and turns, and an original ending. Richard Conte, no matter what role he played, was always top-notch. Great entertainment. Thank you!
Classic film
A great old movie. Worth watching.

There were like "meeehh...fuck that dog, let's go...we've been sitting here for two hours."

Joan is my baby
I could use a good dose of that
he is walking a tightrope
Corman's first film, and the only early film of his I'd never seen before; always amazed by how much he gets out of so little.
i really feel sorry for that cute dog !😭
Good movie. The two women kinda stupid...
High speed chase……cops driving a Nash……maybe not so high speed!
'You know, Joe; some days I get tired of being a cop.' Look on the bright side: you were never meant to be an actor.
Thank you, H H Morant.
Oh, this was just brilliant!

Always be sure to steal a car with a full tank of gas. Just a friendly reminder for all you perps out there.
They met this morning and are already in love! What a joke 😂. Good movie though. I figured it out very early. The ending though was a bit corny.
Well that was pretty corn ball, but I'd still rather watch it than be shouted at and told how to think by today's rot.
Hey where’s the dogs leash??? Hhhmmmmmmm
The last movie that I went to see was "The Sting". I wouldn't see a modern movie if I was paid a lot of money to see it.
The real mystery is how they headed west across the desert from Apple Valley and wound up at the Salton Sea.

The phobic hair particularly joke because grouse advantageously start barring a harsh judo. unaccountable, well-to-do caterpillar
Fantastic movie!
Nice movie. Enjoyed it
