Trama
Lo sapevi?
- QuizIn preference to removing various walls from the sets, director Richard Fleischer decided to make extensive use of a handheld camera that could be brought into rooms; this was one of the first films to do so. To save money, the train sets were rigidly fixed to the floor and the camera was moved to simulate the train rocking.
- BlooperThere are palm trees at the Denver train station.

Jennings: Sorry, this train wasn't designed for my tonnage, heh. Nobody loves a fat man except his grocer and his tailor!

Recensione in evidenza
I'm a huge Charles McGraw fan. Every film he had a large part in, he excels and makes the film better.
Having seen this film 4 or 5 times, my respect for it has grown over the years.
The cinematography isn't perfect - the film probably could have benefited by staying dark and grainy as it seems to be in the early, night scenes.
The taut train scenes seem too bright, but there's nothing wrong with it, simply my preference. A darker train would have made for a more sinister film. Even so, there's plenty of excitement.
The crackling dialogue between Charles McGraw and Marie Windsor is consistently sharp. Seriously, you will have a hard time finding anything more bitter than those two. I'm not sure any other male-female could have made the dialogue (which in a 1950's way is almost corny) come off so terse, as they continuously bark at each other. Someone needs to count the number of times McGraw tells Windsor to "Shut up!".
The film has some exciting twists and turns; you'll enjoy each one.
Great story, solid performances all the way around. This is a FUN movie.
