I never heard of this film before but it came on TCM and I decided to give it a try. All of the acting was excellent especially Weld as the "naive" young girl. The parts where he was running around town reminded me of my brother who has mental problems as well-he does similar things that Perkins character does.

You could see where this movie was going half way through but it was still entertaining to watch.

6 out of 10.

Dennis was stupid to take the rap, maybe the cops would not have believed him, but he could have tried. Or better yet, kept his mouth shut and ran away. Wouldn't it had been better to dispose of the body at night.
