Review of The Naked City (1948) by Bob S — 07 Jan 2008
Crazy cool Weegee-esque 1947 New York exteriors. This movie begins where most film noirs end. Slightly humdrum police procedural but at the time it was a real breakthrough, since imitated by Dragnet and a hundred Jerry Bruckheimer TV shows.
There are eight million stories in the naked city and this one ends with a stunning chase sequence on the Williamsburg Bridge.
