Big Bluff (1955)

★★★★★ · John Bromfield Excellent In The "Big Bluff" · porterville · 2011-02-11

An exceptionally good movie. The ending is a surprise - to say the least. John Bromfield delivers an outstanding lead performance - much to my surprise since I identify him with his role about the same time in TV's "Sheriff of Cochise." His co-stars were also good - Martha Vickers, Robert Hutton, Rosemarie Stack, and Eve Miller. The movie progressively builds both in plot and suspense - stay viewing until the very end.

★★★★★ · BEWARE of spoiler review by Hakuna Muhimu · Shetland60N · 2018-03-31

I watched this film and loved it so much I wanted to leave a review and I noticed that someone called Hakuna Muhimu has completely given away the story like a three year old. So ensure you DO NOT read that review or it will spoil the ending for you (if you've not seen it before).

Loved it. Over the top acting and great ending.

★★★★ · Swanky and skanky! · AppleGirl · 2004-08-26

When terminally ill rich-girl Valerie is advised by her doctor to go somewhere quiet for a rest, she chooses "The Town House," a swingin' fifties LA hotel--it's even got a Tiki nightclub on the first floor. She meets Riccardo (who alas, is just a gigolo), and he's got a girlfriend: nightclub dancer Fritzi. Rich girls in swanky nightclubs, skanky guys with fast convertibles but not a dime in their pocket. Always a formula for trouble. This movie has it... in spades, baby. Many funny scenes with this grade-B cast. You'll find yourself backing up the film to watch little moments and laughing…

★★★★ · A movie that taught me something worth while · Hakuna Muhimu · 2018-03-05

This movie was very good; the ending was climatic; and deserves 3 stars on it's own merit. I never would have guess that she would have died from an attack on her heart; prior to being shot. It was such a brilliant plot that I am going to research just to see under those circumstances what would be the correct charge(s). Hakuna After researching i learned you can't be charge with murder, but in some states they can charge you with attempt murder if you didn't know the person was dead. There may exist other smaller charges like discharging a gun etc.
