BEHIND GREEN LIGHTS


Police Lieutenant Sam Carson is plunged into the murder investigation when the bullet peppered body shows up outside of the police department.

 

Andrew L, a movie reviewer from Rotten Tomatoes, describes this movie with some of the following points: (I've edited his commentary to take out the spoilers)

"The film Behind Green Lights is a crime, mystery drama. It's an old classic film from the mid 40's. It has a small cast and because of that you are able to get know just about everyone and their stories." He also notes that, to him, "It is just like the story of David and Bath-Sheba in the Bible. It started off with what could have been a small innocent glance but ended up him also having someone killed."

Andrew finishes with these thoughts. "We have laws to protect others, and a lot of the times when someone commits a "smaller" crime they become so worried about the consequences that they try cover it up usually with something bigger without thinking clearly. It really has a lot to do with where your own character is. If you happen to make a mistake the first thing you have to do it take care of it, you can't let it sit and grow by trying to cover it, that'll only make it worse."
