I like this movie but for no particular reason. There\'s just something about the aesthetics that work. I think the point about editing in police procedurals is a fine one. the editing style always tends to point to the severity of the environment, the violent movement between two states of being, the sparsity of composure and reflection. With regard to your comments about psychotic characters only emerging later on, what about Robert Ryan in On Deadly Ground or the killer cop in I Wake Up Screaming? Maybe the difference is just that they\'re on \'right side of the fence\'. How about something on Force of Evil - one of the purest and most definitive noirs? Can\'t wait to hear the cast on The Strange Love of Martha Ivers. That\'s always seemed to me like a noir Written on the Wind. thanks guys.
