REVIEW
An interesting if not totally successful updating of the noir classic Out of the Past. Bridges stars as a down-and-out ex-football player who is hired by an ex-teammate-turned-gangster (Woods) to locate the woman (Ward) who he says tried to kill him. Hackford's remake relies on solid performances, star chemistry and a few plot twists to puff up what could have been a rather shopworn premise, and the film also benefits from an over-the-top performance by Woods. Greer, who plays Ward's mother, starred as the missing femme fatale in the original film.
