Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: In the close-ups of the newspaper articles about the search for Sgt. Judson's murderer, read by Warden and Lorene, it's obvious that that story has been pasted over a real newspaper article and that everything after the lead paragraph is taken from an altogether different article, since after the first paragraph none of the text has anything to do with the Judson story, and even the typeface is entirely different.

Angelo Maggio:
Let's go to a phone booth or something, huh? Where I will unveil a fifth of whiskey, I have hidden here under my loose, flowing sports shirt.

I was a kid when I first saw the movie. All I remembered is the beach scene, and I thought it was a lot longer in duration than it actually is. I went to see the re-release this week. Wow! Has this movie held up! The few chauvinistic remarks directed at women would not be acceptable today but reflect how things were at that time. This is a top-notch film in every way! The acting by the stellar cast is close to perfection (Sinatra, Lancaster, Kerr, Borgnine, Clift--I rate them in that order, but they're all excellent). The plot has huge forward momentum, particularly when we see the page on the calendar. This is a classic! See it again!
