Review of Kansas City Confidential (1952) by Doug J — 20 Feb 2009
A B-noir so intricately and smoothly assembled that it rises above its origins, Kansas City Confidential sparingly uses to noir angles or lighting. Instead, it drapes itself in the ambiguity, the gray themes of the genre in a wonderfully convoluted story of a man wrongly accused of a heist.
Wonderful performances across the cast make this a great, unadorned feature.
