Powers gives the performance of his career as Stan Carlisle, a man whose ambition and disregard of others knows no bounds. The other cast members make this a great film. Blondell is superb as the first woman he takes advantage of, and Colleen Grey is stunning as his second love. You just have to watch this one and marvel. Perhaps the greatest carnival film ever made, and very economical in how it tells the story in less than 2 hours, skipping with great economy between periods of Carlisle's career without losing the plot.

"Darkness lurks behind the bright lights of a traveling carnival in one of the most haunting and perverse film noirs of the 1940s. Adapted from the scandalous best seller by William Lindsay Gresham, Nightmare Alley gave Tyrone Power a chance to subvert his matinee-idol image with a ruthless performance as Stanton Carlisle, a small-time carny whose unctuous charm propels him to fame as a charlatan spiritualist, but whose unchecked ambition leads him down a path of moral degradation and self-destruction. Although its strange, sordid atmosphere shocked contemporary audiences, this long-difficult-to-see reflection of postwar angst has now taken its place as one of the defining noirs of its era--a fatalistic downward slide into existential oblivion"--Container.
