You Only Live Once

3 1/2 out of 5 stars. Fritz Lang's direction really stands out here, namely during the prison sequence and Eddie's escape. Sylvia Sidney was a goddamn doll and Henry Fonda wasn't bad. Unfortunately the viscous melodrama reminded me why I'm not too fond of movies from the 30s and the story wasn't smoothed out very well. I don't think its as good as everyone else does but its not bad either.

Okay, if you're going to write up an appreciation of Phantom Lady, I'm going to follow you too! Arsaib recently wrote up some nice comments about that film on my wall too.

Keep seeing you among the names almost every time I "fan" a film. Were we separated at birth??
