4/10
An escape from reality
19 July 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Oh sure, Barbara Stanwyck is always good. But how about believability? That's why they call it a melodrama of the noir variety. She slips on the wedding ring, and Bam!!' She's a different girl. Where are the glass slippers? And how did Steven Morley ever wind up in the same town? And how did she ever fall in love with such vermin in the first place? Oh yes, Barbara Stanwyck can't tell the truth and stand up to a two bit crook. Unbelievable. Take your pick as to the murderer. We have three volunteers with one abetting. But in the the heroic couple live happily ever after so everyone leaves the theatre feeling good.
