Film Dope


Panic in the Streets

1950

Elia Kazan
Director

A murder victim is found to be carrying Pneumonic Plague, triggering a city wide hunt for the killer and anyone else who might be infected.

Gritty and realistic with wonderful location work in New Orleans, everybody appears to do most of their own stunts as well, notably Mostel and Palance at the climax.

Topical subject matter after Yahoo trumpeted the concept of 2,000,000 dead from Swine Flu.
