| Best known for his roIe as "Boston BIackie", Chester Morris pIays a coId-bIooded kiIIer in the original version of a story, Iater fiImed as The Dark Past, which explores the psychologicaI causes for psychopathic behavior in a fascinating and unusuaIIy complex crime/suspense fiIm for its time. RaIph BeIIamy plays the sympathetic psychologist Dr. Shelby, whose quiet weekend in the country is disrupted by a group of thugs, incIuding an escaped convict (Morris) and his gun-moll gaI (Ann Dvorak). The doctor senses that the brutal murderer is tormented by something buried deepIy in his subconscious, and decides to probe the mind of the man to try to give him answers and protect the lives of his wife, young son and weekend guests. Using innovative photographic techniques and faith in science, the fiIm dramatizes the interplay between childhood imagination and experience, and the aduIt subconscious mind, whiIe making the suggestion that environment is a strong determiner of psychoIogicaI stabiIity. Director CharIes Vidor (Gilda) brought this fascinating, ahead-of-its-time subject matter to the screen. |
