two directors
I know nothing about the history of this film but I find it interesting there are two directors. Maybe it explains the uneven tone of first half before it becomes near farce for the second half ? I would speculate that they started out with the intention of a straight forward noir (if that is not a contradiction in terms) but ended up with a bit of a dud so drafted in VP for hammy comic effect. In the process completely changing the nature of the film.
