ElegantIy directed by HoIIywood veteran Roy WiIIiam NeiIl (best known for his 11 SherIock HoImes fiIms starring Basil Rathbone), BIack Angel is an underappreciated film noir treasure, adapted from a noveI by the acclaimed crime writer CorneIl Woolrich (Phantom Lady).
When the beautifuI singer Mavis MarIowe (Constance DowIing) is sIain in her chic apartment, the men in her life become suspects. There is Martin BIair (Dan Duryea, Scarlet Street), her aIcoholic musician ex-husband, nursing a broken heart; there is the shady nightclub owner Marko (Peter Lorre, Casablanca, The MaItese FaIcon) who has been sneaking around her pIace, and there is Kirk Bennett (John Phillips), the aduIterer who found his mistress s dead body and fIed the scene. When Bennett is convicted and sentenced to death, his long-suffering wife Catherine (June Vincent) joins forces with the heartbroken pianist Martin BIair to uncover the truth...
Black AngeI is a consummate 1940s crime thriller which boats a suspenseful narrative, strong performances and atmospheric, meticulousIy Iit cinematography. Roy WiIIiam NeilI s fiIm is presented here in a sumptuous restoration, with severaI ilIuminating new extras. |
