"This film noir has been well described as 'a rat trap of a film', a compelling portrayal of corruption in which an unscrupulous small-time press agent intent on clawing his way to the top debases himself for the favours of a monster of a newspaper columnist. While it does not involve murder the degree of manipulation and self deception is truly noir. Sidney Falco, the agent, is ultimately a more sympathetic figure because the cold bloodedness and self-righteous egomania of the columnist, J.J. Hunsecker, sets Falco's faint glimmerings of self disgust into relief. Susan Hunsecker, the object of her brother's repressed incestuous desire, is the one figure who provides some moral bearings and delivers the retribution that J.J. fears.

"With a brilliant script written by blacklisted screenwriter Clifford Odets, and cinematography by James Wong Howe, this portrait of pay to play yellow journalism in 1950's New York is director Mackendrick's most celebrated film. Tony Curtis and Burt Lancaster portray scheming partners who simultaneously need and loathe one another as they ply their trade in print and on television, promoting the careers of gladhanders and sycophants and destroying those that refuse to play their game. Although Sweet Smell of Success was not a commercial success when it was released, the film has gained in stature over the years. In 1993, the film was selected for preservation by the National Film Registry and the Library of Congress as a film that is \"culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.\""@en . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
