Rating: - Definitely Worth Watching
I don't have much to add to the other reviews, which are very good.
The villain is the best-drawn figure of all the characters. I loved how his controlling nature extends to the car, where he can control the speed from the back seat. He was truly menacing and evil--you can really understand his wife's fear.
Michele Morgan is beautiful--I didn't know who she was and apparently she didn't act in many films in the USA though she did plenty of work in Europe. She's still ... Read More

Rating: - A Strange, Neurotic Noir Based On A Book By Cornell Woolrich
In Hollywood, directors get the credit. With The Chase, a strange, fascinating, neurotic noir, the credit should go to one of the masters of noir pulp fiction, the writer Cornell Woolrich. Like Phantom Lady, another Woolrich creation, the story centers around what might be struggling to get out of a person's head.

Rating:  - All roads lead to Havana
A seedy, disheveled, and unshaven man (we'll learn in a bit his name is Chuck Scott, a displaced WWII vet played by Robert Cummings) stands in front of a diner, longingly watching the fry cook flip pancakes and bacon. Before he can wipe the slaver off his lips a money-laden wallet drops at his feet. THE CHASE is filled with such moments of coincidence that reward neither scrutiny nor reflection, although they do their part to push the plot forward.
So, after breakfast Scott returns the wallet ... Read More
Rating: - An underated classic in desperate need of restoration!
The bizarre, dreamlike "The Chase" from 1946 was based loosely on Cornel Woolrich's novel _The Black Path of Fear_. Robert Cummings stars as Chuck Scott, a penniless WW2 veteran who happens to find a wallet filled with cash. But because he's a "sucker", he returns the wallet to it's owner, who happens to be Eddie Roman (Steve Cochran), a wealthy gangster. Eddie's right-hand man Gino (Peter Lorre) doesn't like or trust Chuck, but Eddie does, and he hires Chuck as his new chauffer. Chuck likes his new job ... Read More
