Terrific film noir with beautiful Joan Bennett
|
| This is a great film noir starring the wonderful Edward G. Robinson, beautiful Joan Bennett and terrific Dan Duryea. Joan is spectacular in this film as the gold-digging hussy who in the beginning still has attacks of conscience. Duryea really plays it up as her sleazy con man boyfriend - smooth like vodka on the rocks. Robinson plays a sweet, harmless unhappily married man looking for someone who understands & appreciates him. The actress playing his wife is obnoxious and mean as a skunk. Duryea & Bennett take Robinson for a "ride" milking him for everything they can get. However, the "sweet and harmless" Robinson finally gets even with both of them - and they had it coming! The print quality of this dvd is pretty good - hopefully, they'll remaster it. I think this film is up there with "Out of the Past", "Double Indemnity", "Criss Cross". I just loved seeing Bennett play a sassy female turned vicious gold-digger with no heart. She was a terrific actress and never received the honors due. |
