“Mitchum was 57 years old and he looked every minute of it; a shambling, still-handsome wreck whose trademark sleepy eyes were sinking deeper by the day. This isn’t the unflappable wiseass Bogart played in The Big Sleep, but rather an older, sadder guy who can’t help but do the right thing and always ends up with nothing to show for it but a broken heart.” – Crooked Marquee, 11/22/2024
