Two Lovers Running For Their Lives! This haunting and beautifully stylish gem from master director Fritz Lang (M, Metropolis) was the first of his remarkable film noir classics, including The Big Heat, Scarlet Street, The Woman In the Window and Clash By Night. Hard-hitting and unforgettable, this exciting tale of crime and revenge inspired numerous "criminal lovers on the run" films like Bonnie and Clyde and The Getaway and remains a searing, tragic and romantic exercise in suspense!
