boring!! C
A review from IMDb.com:
Sinners in Paradise (1938)
*** (out of 4)
Disappointing western-tinged noir (or noir-tinged
western) from John Sturges about a man driven by
guilt over killing a robbery suspect. The movie
plods and plods, especially during the tedious
second act, and doesn't pick up until the end.
I would say Lew Ayres that seems wrong for the
role, but it's hard to pin down what the role
is. Noir is often about making the wrong choices,
but this guy just seems to make one bone-headed
or misguided decision after another. Teresa Wright's
character is equally puzzling. The whole thing
just doesn't work. Some potentially interesting
psychological angles arise, but they're handled
poorly. The score is also a dud and the
cinematography isn't that special either.
A few good moments aside, nothing much to
see here. - MartinTeller
