Sweet Smell of Success

I've been watching movies now for over twenty years, and i only saw this one last month for the first time. And what happened was this. Every script/screenplay, every line of dialogue i loved from all of the other movies, all of them just got swept under the rug. While watching this film, almost each and every line just slapped me in the face. Really, this is remarkable, jaw droppingly good writing. And when spoken by two great actors like Curtis and Lancaster, they become something more.
Hands down, the finest dialogue i will ever hear. And the film behind the words just about manages to keep up. An Excellent film!!!
