I had a hard time trying to like this. Orson Welles’ accent isn’t the best and I don’t really get why he NEEDED to be Irish. The trial scene feels like it’s out of a different movie and the voice over really hurt this noir for me. The initial set up is interesting, but the movie doesn’t find it’s stride until the final 5 minutes. I knew about a lot of this going into it, but I still expected it to make a little more sense than it did. This is my first introduction to Rita Hayworth and she was very pretty and good in this.
