Review of Pickup on South Street (1953) by Tibor B — 02 Mar 2008
Great 50s noir given a surprisingly violent edge thanks to director Samuel Fuller, this is a no-nonsense thriller set in NYC at the time of the "Red Scare". Thelma Ritter in particular is superb as the police informant, her final scene before her death is brilliant.
