Review of Sweet Smell of Success (1957) by Brent E — 18 Nov 2007
What a beautiful looking movie portraying some vile people! Like a great film noir, every line seems to be quotable. Burt Lancaster is playing a Walter Winchell (Drudge back in the day) type of character who seems to have an unhealthy relationship with his sister.
Tony Curtis, a slimy PR hack on the make gets caught in the middle. I can't tell you awesome NYC looked in this film.
