Review of While the City Sleeps (1956) by Art S — 27 Jul 2010
Nifty parallels between the lustmord of the Lipstick Killer and the backstabbing in the newsroom. Underrated Lang thriller that splashes the police blotter on the big screen, adds a column or two from the scandal sheet, dramatizes the denizens of the society pages and ties it all up in a Hollywood extra-edition denouement that satisfies like an unexpected free drink.
And Dana Andrews is buying.
