Review :
F.B.I. melodrama stars Broderick Crawford as agent...
Based on a novel by The Gordons called "Case File: F.B.I.", this is a semi-documentary style crime drama from Columbia starring BRODERICK CRAWFORD as a diligent F.B.I. agent John Ripley assigned to crack a few unsolved cases when a fellow agent on the job is killed in the line of duty.
RUTH ROMAN, MARISA PAVAN and MARTHA HYER are the three women connected to the cases, all of whom give good performances but Pavan is particularly touching as a blind woman.
The documentary style is nicely handled and there's a twist at the end that came as a real surprise to me.
Not great, but an interesting example of satisfactory film noir.
