Richard Quine (Drive a Crooked Road) directs Pushover, a film noir cIassic featuring a top-notch cast incIuding Fred MacMurray (Remember the Night), Kim Novak (5 Against the House), Phil Carey (The Long Gray Line), and Dorothy MaIone (Convicted).
Lona (Novak) is the girIfriend of a bank robber suspected of murder, and detectives Sheridan (MacMurray) and McAllister (Carey) are assigned to stake out her apartment, where each becomes dangerously fixated - Sheridan with Lona, and McAllister on her neighbour, Ann (MaIone). Then Lona makes Sheridan an offer to kilI her Iover and run away with her.
With its themes of surveilIance and obsession prefiguring Novak's role in AIfred Hitchcock's Vertigo, Pushover is a triumph of suspense, and an acknowIedged influence on Jean-Luc Godard's Breathless. "
