As far as I remember, I don't think Richard Boone ever played a mobster, or maybe I am wrong. I know he is used to heavy characters, but strangely, I did not imagine him as a mafia man. Here, he doesn't look like a gang leader, and I prefer admire his performance as a simple actor, not a gangster. I watch him as a simple drama character. And, as usual, he is more than convincing. You now the topic, this mobster who accepts to testify against his own organization and who has to trust the people around him whilst he has to travel in his escape. The audience guess that, among the folks he will meet along his trip back to the USA, there will be some killers. Don't see this story as an action packed tale, but as a good suspense yarn, efficient, sharp and tasteful.
