Review of The Man with the Golden Arm (1955) by Josh Larsen for LarsenOnFilm — 18 Jun 2008
Director Otto Preminger emphasizes the lurid whenever he can – the neon signs, the smoky interiors, the insinuating bass on the soundtrack – so that the movie plays like a blurry, bleary night-on-its-way-to-morning.
Only Sinatra’s talent is clear.
