Had it not been for the Production Code I, the Jury (1953) would have been the best-ever Mickey Spillane film adaptation. It's still pretty good - Peggie Castle sizzles, John Alton’s cinematography is superb. See it.

#AnthonyMann #JohnAlton #filmnoir Film noir doesn't get much better than Anthony Mann’s Raw Deal (1948). A jailbreak goes wrong. Complex characters, noir fatalism and a real atmosphere of impending doom. Superb cinematography by John Alton.
