Make Haste to Live
by Bruce R Fri Oct 06, 2017 2:31 pm
The 1954 noir MAKE HASTE TO LIVE stars Dorothy McGuire, Stephen McNally, Mary Murphy, John Howard and Edgar Buchanan.
Howard is showing a lot of age since his dashing Bulldog Drummond days. I didn't even recognize him at first, he just "looked familar".
McNally gets out of prison after 18 years and comes looking for his wife, McGuire. Having found out he was a gangster, she was happy to have moved on when he went to prison. He feels like she owes him and has come to collect.
Keaney gave it a 2.0 with it has a 6.0 from IMDb and I wouldn't argue with those numbers.
But there really isn't that much here, no tension. IMDb lists it as a Thriller--but why I don't know. It just plods along missing an opportunity for a better, more exciting ending (which I thought was going to happen, but didn't).
