Just an average production. They kept playing the hit song, Town Without Pity,throughout, and this effectively ruined the movie. Kirk Douglas gave a powerful performance, and one of his very best. Oscar worthy, for sure. Outside if that, not much. The pacing, the direction... it doesn't seem the best was brought out of these actors. The periodic narration by the journalist gave the film an aura of phoniness that detracted from its dramatic potential.
