Re: THE BIG COMBO. In a film loaded with incredible noir trappings--from John Alton's brilliant cinematography and Joseph H. Lewis' stylish and inventive direction--to the wicked and wonderful performances of its male-driven cast, the performance of Jean Wallace as Richard Conte's perpetually haunted lover and the object of Cornel Wilde's smoldering obsession, emerges as the most memorable take-away in this all-time classic film noir. Happy Birthday, baby.
