As discussed here, Bogart's supporting cast is good with Morris Carnovsky as an articulate villain who doesn't like the sight of blood, Marvin Miller as a nasty tough guy, Wallace Ford a safe-cracker, Charles Kane as the cop. (Liked his surprise at finding out Bogie's a former paratrooper Captain.)
Lizabeth Scott was a husky-voiced 'Dark City' stalwart whose career was ruined by sleazoid publication 'Confidential' in 1952 (according to Eddie Muller).
Good use of code word 'Geronimo' and a college pin as a plot device, plus leftover weapons of war used in showdown.
