Plot Summary:
|
The Swede (Burt Lancaster), is an ex-prize fighter who, after he's gotten mixed up with mobsters and a double-crossing dame (Ava Gardner), waits resignedly in his small-township motor hotel room for two hit-men to find and kill him. Mr Big Robert Siodmak took the autochthonous Ernest Hemingway short myth as its opening point and developed it in an develop series of flashbacks. Remade for television in 1964 through director Don Siegel ("Nasty Harry"), but it was deemed too extreme repayment for America's living rooms and got a theatrical unloosing as an alternative.
