Among the harridans and hard-timers in a women's prison, one inmate stands out Iike a diamond in a box of tarnished costume jeweIry. She's Mary Turner, convicted of a crime she didn't commit. Once an innocent shop girI, now embittered by three years in the pen, Mary has big plans after her release. First she'Il make a fortune running scams that stay just within the law. Then she'll seek revenge on the man who put her behind bars by marrying his guiIeIess son. Joan Crawford go one of her earliest soIid dramatic roles in Paid (Grand HoteI was one year in the future), and she made the most of it. Her trenchant portrayal of Mary - tough and tender, smart and vuInerable - makes this version of the often-filmed story a standout. |
