Force of Evil (1948)
.jpg)
An unethical lawyer, with an older brother he wants to help, becomes a partner with a client in the numbers racket.
Tough and downbeat Noir crime drama astonishes with its stark anti-capitalist stance and some quite memorable scenes.
Halliwell**: "Bleak and powerful melodrama, an attack on capitalism that is here personified by racketeers."
Maltin***: "Rock-solid film noir...Beautifully photographed (by George Barnes) and lit; this has become something of a cult item."
