Lutte sans merci

Alan Ladd, in his second to last role, is Sherill, a rocket scientist who gets beat up by a gang of thugs. Rod Steiger is Detective Koleski, who is working the case. He tells Sherill to let him solve the case, but both the gang of punks and Sherill keep going after each other. This can't end well! Directed by Philip Leacock. This was one of the last films he directed.... did mostly television after this, for another twenty years! Story is based on The Tiger Above Us, by Leigh Brackett. Ladd died young at 50, from a combination of alcohol and drugs. Steiger will go on to win the oscar for Heat of the Night a couple years later. It's just okay. No big shakespeare production, but it'll do.
