One of the great post-war [[Film Noir|noir films]], ''[[{{PAGENAME}}]]'' stars [[Glenn Ford]], [[Lee Marvin]] and [[Gloria Grahame]]. Set in a fictional American town, the film tells the story of a tough cop (Ford) who takes on a local crime syndicate, exposing tensions within his own corrupt police department as well as insecurities and hypocrisies of domestic life in the 1950s. Filled with atmosphere, fascinating female characters, and a jolting—yet not gratuitous—degree of violence, ''{{PAGENAME}}'' through its subtly expressive technique and resistance to formulaic denouement, manages to be both stylized and brutally realistic, a signature of its director [[Fritz Lang]].
