Reception
Critical response
Film critic Leonard Maltin said of the film, "Low-budget noir has a hard-boiled sheen but a prosaic, overlong treatment; it even finds time for one of Belita's ice skating routines!"[2]
gollark: You could use, for all its problems, krist.
gollark: Technically, krist isn't much of a blockchain, it just happens to use a block-type thing for adding new currency.
gollark: It's not a websocket "sender".
gollark: You would just need one file which either just checks if it's on CC or the server and acts accordingly, or do some wizardry to make it valid code in multiple languages.
gollark: True, true.
