Amazon.com Essential Video

An amazingly effective film noir action movie, shot on location in New Orleans in 1950, that has twists of plot and explosions of violence that can still make audiences gasp. Elia Kazan, of all people, directed this story of a public health worker (Richard Widmark) and a police detective (Paul Douglas) who have only a few hours in which to capture some fleeing felons who may be infected with the plague. The bad guys are played, with enormous relish, by Jack Palance and Zero Mostel, the latter only a few years before Kazan ratted him out to the House Un-American Activities Committee. In retrospect, this modest crime picture looks like a crucial turning point in the formation of Kazan's distinctive style, a clear precursor to the blistering location work of landmark films like On the Waterfront, Baby Doll, and America, America. --David Chute


Review

One of director Elia Kazan's favorite movies was this very dark tale about the bubonic plague invading New Orleans. Panic in the Streets featured a mesmerizing performance from Richard Widmark as the doctor called in to investigate a mysterious death who becomes entangled in a sinister plot. Shot in semi-documentary style by the masterful Kazan, the film applies top Hollywood production values to a bizarre original story for which Edward Anhalt and Edna Anhalt won a screenwriting Oscar. Kazan used many non-actors, shot the film entirely on location in New Orleans, and had many of the scenes done with improvised or partly improvised lines. The result is a gripping realism. Among the veterans in the lustrous cast are Barbara Bel Geddes, Zero Mostel, and Jack Palance. Kazan's loose style with actors was innovative for 1950, and he would continue to hone his direction of "method" acting in the next several years with such films as A Streetcar Named Desire, On the Waterfront, and East of Eden. ~ Michael Betzold, All Movie Guide

5.0étoiles sur 5 Where's the DVD?, Mai 23 2004

This review is from: Panic in the Streets (VHS Tape)
This is a superb documentary-like film noir with a great director, cinematographer and cast. Fox, you licensed Criterion to create an outstanding DVD of Sam Fuller's "Pickup on South Street" (also featuring Widmark): please do us all a favor and do the same for this wonderful film!

4.0étoiles sur 5 One of those "major classics less widely known today", Nov. 1 2002

This review is from: Panic in the Streets (VHS Tape)
Plague is loose in New Orleans, from a sailor who smuggled gems. Jack Palance and Zero Mostel, goons who got the disease (and the gems), are unaware of their infection and think the authorities pursue them for the emeralds. Richard Widmark, the no-nonsense public health doctor, doesn't want the story leaked because people would flee and carry the disease, with modern transport - "I could leave here and I could be in Africa tomorrow," he warns. Atmospheric of new Orleans - you can almost smell the humidity - and Blackie (Palance), with his edginess and his street network of contacts and informers of diverse shapes and sizes and colors, is memorable too. (This film took a long time to become available on VHS; let's hope it doesn't take as long for DVD.)

4.0étoiles sur 5 Exciting Film Noir, Aoû 10 2002
Par "patrick_mcknight" (Vancouver, BC Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This review is from: Panic in the Streets (VHS Tape)
When a man is found dead from a bullet wound in the steets of New Orleans, an autopsy reveals that he had bubonic plague. Now it's a race against time for the police and health officials to find the killers before they become contagious and spread the plague across the entire city.

The idea of an epidemic threatening populations seems increasingly likely in this modern time. The spread of AIDS, Ebola, and the recent West Nile virus seem to flood our television screens every day. However, this film is probably just a disguised red scare allegory. The danger of the spread of disease, the way the police hound and interrogate people for information, all this reminds me of the Cold War paranoia sweeping America at the time of the film's release (1950) and the subsequent witch hunts. Appropriately, the director Elia Kazan would name names of suspected Communists before HUAC two years later. Zero Mostel, who played one of the gangsters and plague carriers, would be blacklisted by the Hollywood studios.

Fortunately, one doesn't have to read deeply into this film as it is first and foremost an exciting and entertaining suspense thriller. It was shot entirely on location in New Orleans in black and white giving it a documentary feel. One can almost feel the sounds, tastes, and smells of New Orleans of the 1950s. Kazan considered it to be his first "real" film. One can easily believe it. Before PITS, Kazan had made well acted but stagy dramas. This film truly turned him into a real director, not just a stage director as were his roots. By the time he made "On the Waterfront", Kazan had fully mastered the cinematic techniques while still managing to get great performances from his entire cast.

Highly reccomended for any fan of action films, gangster dramas, and film noir.
