I found Spencer Tracy using Jiu Jitsu less plausible every time I saw it, but it turns out the stuff I had doubts about was real. You really can grab someone's wrist with one hand and throw them.
Black Rock is made even more isolated by wartime shortages. The place has one car, one Jeep and one hearse. Robert Ryan rules over the town with Ernest Borgnine and Lee Marvin as his dangerously dull-witted henchmen.
A technicolor film noir. With Dean Jagger, Ann Francis, and Walter Brennan.
Available on the Criterion Channel.
