Slow burn

 

Fire Down Below (1957)


Directed by Robert Parrish this film based on the novel of the same name stars Rita Hayworth, Robert Mitchum and Jack Lemmon. Two friends help smuggle a woman from one island to another.


There is not a huge amount to this film, it is a love triangle that mostly plays out how you would expect. Rita Hayworth gets to show off her dancing skills in an extended sequence but otherwise this film is not very remarkable. Nice to see Bernard Lee rock up in the second half of the film.


3/5
