Most directors are lucky if they create one masterpiece, but no one told that to John Huston. John's father Walter gives one of his best performances (perhaps the best?), and Tim Holt shines as well. As in THE MALTESE FALCON, the key here is in the direction. John Huston knew how to tell a visual story. He used no special camera tricks or angles. A tour de force of minimalist style.
