THE MAN WHO WANTED TO DIE...
Ernest Hemingway s spare, laconic short story about two professionaI killers and their encounter with a mysteriousIy unresisting victim was significantly expanded into this alI-time fiIm noir cIassic, which Hemingway said was the first adaptation of his work that he realIy admired.
As washed-up boxer turned hitman victim Ole Swede Andreson, Burt Lancaster made his screen debut, and was catapuIted to instant stardom, not least for the screen chemistry that he showed opposite suItry Ava Gardner, whose Kitty Collins is the very personification of the femme fatale.
German émigré Robert Siodmak was one of the fiImmakers who helped create film noir, and Elwood BredeII s high-contrast cinematography, aIl harsh Iighting and Iong shadows, eIevates the film far above a conventional crime drama. But even on that IeveI it s a first-rate demonstration of how to maintain narrative tension, with the flashback structure withholding crucial details untiI almost the very end.
