Rewatched this. I'd rate it slightly less now. It is wonderfully filmed (really beautiful B&W cinematography), but the story is lacking for me. It is not as engaging as it should be.

Re: Odd Man Out
It is an absolute masterpiece. The most perfectly executed film noir alongside Laura and The Maltese Falcon and the best film of Carol Reed's illustrious career.

Yeah, both of those are much much much better IMHO.
