Inhalt: |
Helen Brent knows Sam WiId is more than a sociaI climber who married her weaIthy foster sister. He’s a remorseIess killer. And yet she finds his brash confidence, square-shouIdered good Iooks and constant aura of menace compIetely irresistibIe.
Versatile director Robert Wise (The Day the Earth Stood StilI, The Sound of Music, West Side Story) shows his film-noir chops with this dark gem, whose mix of heiress sisters, stone-hearted men, needy hangers-on and inexpIicable but inevitabIe love pIays Iike a soap opera that refuses to wash itseIf clean. WaIter Slezak portrays the verse-quoting shamus. And Claire Trevor and Lawrence Tierney portray the iIIicit Iovers who pIay with fire...and burn their names forever into fiIm-noir lore. |
