Movie Reviews of Force of Evil
Movie Review: Great Noir
Summary: 4 Stars
I was pleasantly surprised to discover "Force of Evil" is a top-shelf film transfer. It has been properly restored, even surpassing John Garfield's companion film "Body and Soul" -- which was and is considered more marketable. "Force of Evil" casts Garfield as a corrupt lawyer who faces a conscience crisis over illegal lottery operations in a dispute with his older brother (Thomas Gomez). There's an irony in the fact that the film foreshadowed the current climate of government-sponsored lotteries, with their concomitant corruption of societal values. And "Force of Evil" was released in 1948.
