Sinopsis(1)
Lucas Doolin (Robert Mitchum), héroe de guerra, se une a un antiguo compañero que se dedica de forma clandestina a fabricar whisky. Su trabajo consiste en conducir un coche con este alcohol de contrabando arremetiendo contra controles policiales, evitando emboscadas y afrontando cualquier tipo de problema que le pueda impedir cumplir con su objetivo. El asesinato de uno de sus hombres en manos de unos bandoleros que se adentran en su territorio hace que empiece una guerra entre bandas. El precio a pagar puede ser incluso la vida pero, si eso impide que caiga el negocio que tanto les ha costado levantar, habrá valido la pena. (Filmin)

The flashy title and synopsis promised a lot, I was looking forward to a high-octane thrilling spectacle and what I got was, well, snail-paced conversation, with one short minute chase and one car explosion. A seemingly insignificant Arthur Ripley film, but actually solidly directed by Robert Mitchum, who also wrote the story and once again showed what a badass he was (no offense, he was a real badass), next to which his real brother looks more like a teenage son, at least 25 years younger, with a bit of a wry expression. The acting ability of one, next to the acting "incompetence" of the other was like a punch in the face, you wouldn’t even say that they are siblings. But otherwise nothing against it, it was nice to watch, but I expected a lot more, considering how successful the film was in the States. The most interesting thing about it is the fact that Bruce Springsteen himself paid tribute to it in his son “Thunder Road”.
