Lewis Films<\/li>\n<li>Mafia<\/li>\n<li>Undercover Cops and Agents<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Review: <\/strong><br \/>\nThis semi-documentary look at T-Men (federal Treasury agents) determined to collect on back-taxes from an Al Capone-like gangster is primarily notable for being directed by Joseph H. Lewis of <a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/?p=24946\"><em>Gun Crazy<\/em> (1949)<\/a> fame, who, assisted by DP Burnett Guffey, brings flashes of cinematic ingenuity to an otherwise unexceptional story. Too much emphasis is put on Ford&#8217;s &#8220;career crisis&#8221; (no doubt, messing with the Mafia is dangerous), and certain pivotal scenes &#8212; i.e., when a young girl (Joan Lazer) whose father (Anthony Caruso) has been murdered by The Big Fellow&#8217;s men translates her Italian grandmother&#8217;s (Esther Minciotti&#8217;s) pleas for Ford to continue his hunt &#8212; are milked too hard for emotion. With that said, Ford gives a surprisingly affecting performance; but Foch &#8212; leading lady in Lewis&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/?p=50\"><em>My Name is Julia Ross<\/em> (1945)<\/a> &#8212; is wasted in a pro-forma role as his concerned wife sent off to the country to wait for him, and Whitmore, a consummate supporting actor, is also surprisingly unmemorable. More time should have been spent following Ford&#8217;s nemesis, a hopelessly smug attorney (Barry Kelley) who plays a pivotal role in the denouement. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Glenn Ford as Frank Warren<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Ford.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Ford.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"704\" height=\"544\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Ford.png 704w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Ford-128x99.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Ford-300x232.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 704px) 100vw, 704px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Barry Kelley as O&#8217;Rourke<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Kelley.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Kelley.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"704\" height=\"544\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Kelley.png 704w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Kelley-128x99.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Kelley-300x232.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 704px) 100vw, 704px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Burnett Guffey&#8217;s cinematography and Lewis&#8217;s direction<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"704\" height=\"544\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography.png 704w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography-128x99.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography-300x232.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 704px) 100vw, 704px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography3.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography3.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"704\" height=\"544\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37536\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography3.png 704w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography3-128x99.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography3-300x232.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 704px) 100vw, 704px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography4.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"704\" height=\"544\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37537\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography4.png 704w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography4-128x99.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Undercover-Man-Cinematography4-300x232.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 704px) 100vw, 704px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nNo, though it&#8217;s recommended for one-time viewing. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Links: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0042006\/\">IMDb entry<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/1949\/04\/21\/archives\/the-undercover-man-with-glenn-ford-as-federal-agent-opens-at-the.html\">NY Times Original Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tcm.com\/tcmdb\/title\/27986\/the-undercover-man#articles-reviews?articleId=241036\">TCM Article<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.timeout.com\/us\/film\/the-undercover-man-1949\">Time Out Capsule Review<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s never too late for a trade.&#8221; Synopsis: A T-man (Glenn Ford) and his partner (James Whitmore) are tasked with hunting down a notorious gangster who owes $3 million in taxes, but quickly find that all witnesses are too scared to talk.
