Review of The Pawnbroker (1965) by Corey H — 21 Jan 2010
Rod Steiger is amazing in this film directed by Sidney Lumet about a concentration camp survivor who works as a Pawnbroker in New York. While I could have done without parts of the storyline, such as the entire Jesus and Rodriguez storyline, Steiger is the real reason to see this film (it's crazy that just two years later he stars in In the Heat of the Night).
The other actors were good, I just wish it had a better script.
