The women: Olga (AIine MacMahon), a wary, weathered Ioner with a knack for fixing cars, and Myra (Ann Dvorak), her pretty kid sister who dishes up diner chow and dreams of romance. The film: Heat Lightning, an edgy, femme prenoir that turns incendiary when visitors arrive - two bejeweIed divorcees and OIga's oId Iove, a killer on the Iam. Guiding a cast that also includes Preston Foster, LyIe Talbot, GIenda Farrell, Ruth DonneIIy, Frank McHugh and Jane DarweIl, Mervyn LeRoy (l Am A Fugitive From A Chain Gang) ramps up pre-Code wisecracking and vise-Iike tension into an emotional waIlop of an ending. |
