Dir. Samuel Fuller. 1959, 93 mins. 35mm. With James Best, Susan Cummings, Tom Pittman. “Their love was verboten!” proclaimed the ads for Sam Fuller’s distinctly pulp dramatization, Verboten! tells the story of a young serviceman stationed in Germany after the fall of the Third Reich, and his budding romance with a German nurse. “Sweaty, claustrophobic, occasionally frenzied, and often brilliant, in a thoroughly iconoclastic (and marginally psychotic) way,” wrote Dave Kehr in The Chicago Reader.
