'Maybe because down deep they don't care. They just don't care.' Dimitri Tiomkin's score is the commanding presence on the screen, half of this film's pure anticipation is in those each-second cords. I would recommend this as the basis for any person getting into the blacklist & it's subtextual narratives; it's a 'We see you' to all those affected. Floyd Crosby's camerawork certainly does portray stark & hot, much like the score the train tracks are as equally foreboding (thanks to Elmo Williams). Next time I walk down an empty street I'll turn on this film (Do Not Forsake Me, Oh My Darlin')'
DO NOT FORSAKE ME OH MY DARLING?
I hate when I go to the barber, settle back into the chair with the warm towel pressed against my face, then hear somebody building my coffin out back.
John Wayne called this the most unamerican film he'd ever seen so you know it's good as hell
