While the City Sleeps – 1956 Lang
- George Sanders, Dana Andrews, Thomas Mitchell, Vincent Price and Ida Lupino are all perfectly cast and do a great job here
- I really don’t care for Lang’s use of fast forward here on some chase and action sequences- it’s a flaw
- You can clearly see the cost cutting on the exposition shots- which is, in itself, a little sad when you consider some of the create set design work Lang did in the 1920s mostly- but even still to a lesser extend in the 30’s and 40’s with some Hollywood noir
- Certainly comparisons can be made here with the narrative man-hunt serial killer film M
- Very accessible film
- Outside the top 10 of 1956
- Recommend
