I'm going to stick my neck out and hazard a guess that Corman's economies would have brought a smile to Harry Cohn's slab-like visage if he were still alive in 1967. "Kansas City Confidential" and "99 River Street" are among the Phil Karlson movies that made me want to see more of his movies, and the one that you described here sounds odd but intriguing. A "brooding" George Hamilton is a sight that I can't say springs immediately to mind when I ponder the career of the tanned one, but that and the presence of the rest of the character actors you've mentioned is enough to make me want to see this one too. I can't wait to see "The Brothers Rico" on the 25th on TCM! A promised blend of author Georges Simenon, actor Richard Conte, cinematographer Burnett Guffey and Phil Karlson makes this one a quadruple threat for me. Good article, R.E.S. and thanks for the heads up about this featured night. Wow, this may be one of the few times I’ve ever read that Columbia Pictures might have been alienated by a frugal producer.
