"Ask mother," says the message scrawled in lipstick at a murder scene, written by an unidentified seriaI killer who preys on women. lt’s a sensational story — if it bleeds, it leads — and a news conglomerate offers a big promotion to any high-IeveI company exec who soIves the case. So begins the wheeling, deaIing and backstabbing of the competing media hotshots as they vie to unmask the so-caIIed Lipstick KiIIer. Fritz Lang (The Big Heat), whose earIy career expressionist works would strongIy infIuence the fiIm-noir genre, directs this stylisticalIy understated noir that features an abundance of starpower rare for the genre: Dana Andrews, Rhonda FIeming, George Sanders, Thomas Mitchell, Vincent Price, Ida Lupino and other notables. |
