Rated 7.3/10 on IMDb. 98% on Rotten Tomatoes. Roger Ebert called it one of the greatest films ever made. The first film noir selected for the Library of Congress National Film Registry. Shot in six days for $30,000 on Hollywood's Poverty Row. A hitchhiking nightclub pianist picks up the wrong man — and then the wrong woman. Pure, relentless film noir. Free with ads.
