Joe Martini's mood swings get a little tedious but otherwise a solid yarn. Pavan an outside the box choice for Curtis's love interest proved to be a home run. Otherwise terrific cast, good acting and a suspenseful story that held up right to the end.

I enjoyed the movie, and I found the story interesting. Loved the many shots of San Francisco in the 59’s. Gilbert Roland was my favorite character.
