Good taught directed film

Saw this yesterday for the first time.... started watching casually, but was soon drawn into the plot. Thought the direction was spot on , and the tension was ramped up wonderfully.

Yes the dialogue was a tad clipped, but it was 1951 for goodness sake, but I thought the script was bang on , with some wonderful cameos( apart from Kenneth Moore, as said elsewhere on here who's role was superfluous)

This film was a real gem, and would recommend it to anyone.
