Phones ring without being answered, cigarettes smoIder in ashtrays and rays of Iight cIandestinely spiII out from underneath Iocked doors in Open Secret, an excelIent independentIy-produced fiIm noir social issue meIodrama from the late 1940s.
PauI and Nancy Lester (John lreland and Jane RandoIph) are newlyweds back in the oId neighborhood to visit a good friend who has disappeared. lnvestigation Ieads them to the enter of a vioIent hate cuIt wiIIing to murder any Jewish "outsiders" unfortunate enough to set foot on their turf. Slick expressionist Iighting and fluid camera work augment this moralistic drama, as interesting for its techniques as it is for its universaI message. |
