The Good Die Young is an odd little heist film. It spends more time developing its characters – four men who are not career criminals, and their wives – than it does with the heister (or its preparation, or what happens after.)
As a character study, it is pretty interesting. The acting is good (Gloria Grahame is in it and you can never go wrong with Gloria Grahame). But it lacks that certain something that makes a film great.
