The Assassin (1952)
8/10
the wrong man in Venice
4 June 2019
"Venetian Bird" is a fine surprise, a thriller in Venice with a fast paced ending after more than an hour too talky to me, action is just described in conversations, and that's too bad. Venice is of course well exploited with fine shots night and day, especially in the ending, and with few tourists. And Richard Todd is fantastic with his stronger and stronger look until this famous ending. So be patient till the end. And when you've seen this end, watch again the beginning. Great musical score.
