Good movie
I think its a good value. I don't mind paying a Andrew Jackson for quality film noir. This film delivers with film noir bravo. I read on the net that film noir is French for dark picture or movie. These type of pictures don't always have a happy ending. Sometimes a bad ending. Usually though, somewhere in between. Your classic film noir ( in my opinion) has a anti hero, or questionable good guy whom is hardboiled, weary of his part of the world he lives in, that sometimes falls hard in temptation. Sometimes that temptation is a scheming woman that looks too good to be true. Classic film noir usually has alot of cigarette smoke, some gun action, a saxophone playing in the background at times to set the mood of particular circumstances, and yes, the movie applied in black and white to top it ...

Classic film noir usually has alot of cigarette smoke, some gun action, a saxophone playing in the background at times to set the mood of particular circumstances, and yes, the movie applied in black and white to top it off. The best film noir (my opinion) have private investigators such as Humphrey Bogart, and Robert Mitchum playing the leading characters. Well hopefully I explained to the best of my ability what film noir is to maybe new people whom not aquatinted with old black and white movies. I'm sure the rest of the old school viewers already know. Well the Odds Against Tomorrow is definitely a film noir. This movie stars Harry Belafonte as a down and out gambler that owes some bad men money. He continues to play the horse races despite being in a loosing streak, to stay alive. Robert Ryan plays Earle Slater as a man who has a manslaughter charge on his last record, whom can't seem to find a job, let alone hold one. Ed Begley plays Burke, a former policeman whom did time in the can (probably because he wouldn't give up his connections to his higher superiors) whom is tired of living the life he has now. Burke sees an opportunity to make easy dough (50 grand) by taking advantage of Ingram (Belafonte) and Slater's bad luck situation. They find a bank to rob at night where only one employee is working at that time, or two that supposedly easy pickings. Is this a easy assignment? Only one problem. Slater is racist, and since Ingram is black, Slater let's Ingram and Burke know about what he thinks about the whole set up. Ingram doesn't mind telling Slater exactly what time of day it is without looking at his watch. But they both know they need the money bad, and Burke makes sure that he is the glue to keep his new bank robbing team together. I won't tell you the ending of course, let's just say that Labor Ready temp services wasn't an option in 1959 ha ha. Not for these hard on their luck individuals in this picture. What I love about these classic cinema movies, is the leading and supporting characters usually have excellent character development, with hard hitting dialogue. Two of the main ingredients for film noir I'm sure of. I also like reading in between the lines. One such example in this movie is where are the beginning Slater is nice to a little black girl. You couldn't tell that he is racist until he meets Ingram. This tells me that Mr. Robert Ryan was telling the audience "I'm only playing a character. I'm not racist at all". And yes he is the best part of this movie. His character can be mellow, then all of a sudden turn sour and mean in a moments notice. He was really good at playing them type of characters. Shelly Winters plays Slater's devoted lady that doesn't care how much money he makes, as long as they are together. This really is what the whole movie is about, but you see it's much more with the banter that goes back and forth between Slater and Ingram. And yes, possibly a ending that the viewer didn't expect. For me this movie was even better the second time around, and I don't mind (and never bored) watching the same movie twice a month, or one a month. Old school forever! I just take a DVD off the shelf, put in the disc in the DVD player, push play, and let my eye balls have some quality entertainment vitamins for fun viewing. Best line in this movie when Slater says in a bar calm but serious "Any particular hand?" Hope this review helps, forgive me for any typos. Peace.
