    seriously underrated noir with dick powell in marlowe mode. always fun to see him play a hard guy with plenty of snappy dialogue, as seen in 'murder, my sweet.' terrific russian roulette scene!

    Framed for a crime he never committed, Rocky (Dick Powell) is fresh outta' prison and looking for a little payback. <i>Cry Danger</i> is chocked full of all the elements noir fans slobber over. Powell is rock solid and Rhonda Fleming looks absolutely edible.
