"Kansas City Confidential" is one of the all-time great, film noir movies. It rates high on all the critic's, best lists. It's about an innocent man caught in a big, frame up after a million dollar, armored car heist. But, it seems the crooks picked on the wrong guy. John Payne goes on a quest to clear his name and hunt the thieves down, in Mexico. It's a great story with lots of twists & turns. The trio of thugs is worth the watch. Neville Brand, Jack Elam, and Lee Van Cleef are as nasty as they come. The audio / video quality is great. Don't miss this classic.
