The Narrow Margin (1952) - Film No. 336

336. The Narrow Margin (1952) Fleischer. Stars Charles McGraw and Mary Windsor. Plot: Film Noir about a cop (McGraw) taking a Chicago Gun-moll (Windsor) by train to L.A to testify against the mob. Also on board are hit-men who know she's on board but not what she looks like. A fun fast-paced thriller, well directed and acted. McGraw is good as the tough cop but rather stiff in the romance scenes. Windsor is a hoot as the tough as nails Gun-moll. Its amazing how good the movie is considering the low budget. Rating ***
