Ah, I remember that movie, sort of (the Pitt-Hopkins picture, that is). Or more to the point, I remember giving up on it about halfway through.
Yeah, I liked Widmark in a lot of stuff (Pickup on South Street and the original Night and the City quickly come to mind), but that first one in particular was pretty damned hard to forget (but didn't Coma come along later than Twilight's?). He didn't quite outdo the Robert Mitchum performances in the original versions of Night of the Hunter and Cape Fear, but he came close.
