A playboy comedian flees from the Mafia, change city, name, join the homeless, restarts life from below, in the hardest works, only to conclude there is no escape.
The theme is not new but the perspective is more towards psychological drama than towards thriller or cop/mob movie.
Beautiful cinematography in black and white by Ghislain Cloquet, a sure direction by Arthur Penn and a protagonist, Warren Beatty, still very young, but already full of charisma.
An interesting film that also provides a convincing journey into the world of show business in the small urban clubs of the American sixties.
