A truly superb film!Richard Widmark really displays his versatility as an actor.His character(Harry Fabian)is a total departure from the character he played in"Kiss of Death"(Tommy Udo),and the character he played in another of my favorites"Pickup On South Street"(Skip McCoy).I have Never been disappointed with any of his films!Gene Tierney was great as well as Googie Withers,Francis L.Sullivan,et.al.Just a Great Film.Also,it\’s so well set in post-war London!!!

My favorite Dassin\’s movie is "10:30 P.M. Summer". Melina Mercouri is GREAT in this film.

Thieves\’ Highway is just impeccable. One of the more progressive Hollywood films of the 40\’s, and the performances throughout are solid.

A fitting tribute and engaging prose. If you want to see Mercouri at her best seek out the earlier Michael Cacoyannis\’ Stella.
