Criss Cross (1949)


I love noir. There is a fair amount of variety in the genre, but often it's just a guy falling for the wrong girl. He knows it's a mistake, everyone tells him it's a mistake, but he loves her. And he doesn't realize his mistake until it's way too late.

This one is top quality. Burt Lancaster and Yvonne De Carlo are the leads, and very easy on the eyes. The sets are great, the dialog steamy, and they even dance the rumba. What more do you need?
