The Narrow Margin (1952) – R. Fleischer
Incredibly taut and
suspenseful B-movie film noir that makes up for plot holes (apparent later not
sooner) with tough dialogue and hand-held camerawork. A hard-boiled cop must
escort a gangster's moll across country by train for her appearance in front of
the grand jury in L. A. She is not grateful and to make matters worse, the
mob's gunmen are on the train too. Highly recommended.
