Movie #165 The Sweet Smell of Success *1957*

I reviewed this film already.  Yesterday my mother visited my house and I put this in.  She is a big Tony Curtis fan and I wanted to show her this little gem.  Instead of writing another review, here are my 3 Reasons.

Reason 1.  Lines like "The Cat's in the bag and the bag's in the river" and "I'd hate to take a bite out of you.  You're a cookie full of arsenic".

Reason 2.  Tony Curtis is the sleaziest thing ever captured on film.  He aspires to be pond scum.

Reason 3.  The Chico Hamilton Quintet music.

Rating: ★★★★1/2
