Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .
It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
The story of a soldier deeply affected by the death of his best friend in combat. When soldier(Barry)returns home, he is unable to adjust,find work-soon falls in with hoodlums.After serving time in prison, and attempts to go straight, Soldier sets enevitable course to films only plausable conclusion. A great effort for star Barry in a break-away role from his traditional westerns.
