He was guilt and slime personified -- along with KISS OF DEATH it was a bookend career-defining role.
Well done, Richard.

Widmark quietly and efficiently establishes why he is someone that someone else might just want to plunge a knife (or two) into ... as mattgarth pointed out .. Widmark could be slime personified and in this film, he indeed was ! No flash or histrionics required.
