- The File on Thelma Jordon 1950 Full length American film noir movie starring Barbara Stanwyck. Directed by Robert Siodmak (who certainly knew his way around a crime noir). It seems mysterious robberies have been happening at her rich Aunt's estate and young Thelma Jordon seeks the help of the troubled Assistant District Attorney. Of course more crimes and MURDER occur. Something about Thelma... - Broken Trout -
Boy, Hollywood should be ashamed of the crap they spew out nowadays! There hasn't been a whole heckuva a lot worth watching since the 70's. I love this era of film. Excellent! Thanks for uploading!
It’s ok to like both. I love old movies, but there are still good movies made today. Everything is not a superhero flick, it just seems that way.
T❤
Not true.
Agreed.....I've watched old movies since i was 8yo. I barely watch TV now, i watch all my old movies on you tube
Totally agree! 😂
Delightful film. Life was good in those days. America's golden period.
Enjoyed this film. Interestingly, his real life children played his character's children. Thank you.
I love these old classic movies 🥰❤❤❤
CAUTION! SPOILER ALERT!. O.K. this IS 'Film Noir' Stanwyck is marvelous, as always. So is Wendell Cory. From my point of view he gave a fine low key performance in which he was in complete control. If I could make any change, it would end with the car crash, making an extremely powerful ending. In the beauty of film making, and superb acting, her decision with the electric cigarette lighter, and the expression on her face tells us all. A decision was made to go on with the story to make sure the audience would better understand, however reading the many comments below I think it added more confusion than clarity. Nevertheless, all in all, this is first class movie making.
If you watch the movie, and can bring yourself to pause it after the crash. Come back in 10 minutes to watch the finish. See of you agree with me, that the end should have been at the fiery crash. It might leave some questions, but great film making doesn't have to give all the answers. If the film has given us enough information, and this one does, though somewhat confusingly, we, the audience, can fill in the gaps. It's one of the reasons we love talking about the movies we've seen.
If ever there was is a Thespian such Barbara...you've got to watch Stella Dallas, The Lives of Martha Ivers...to name a fraction of this Classy, Classy Lady..
Absolutely outstanding.
She was a wonderful actress.
I love Ms. Stanwyck movies and TV appearances.
The ultimate in perfection , always played her part as if it was her life.
She was and is one of the very best of excellence!
WOW the final death scene pro all the way!
There is no anger an violence in these movies. A character avoided even to say "fat ass". What a time when you don't hear "f" every sentance.
Very refreshing. I love old films.
WOW didn't see that ending coming !
@CL Crittenton I had the same problem with "Titanic".
23:01 Doctor or no doctor....I want my brandy ! 🍷🌩👇👌👍🙂
I love how the RUclips thumbnail for this picture has absolutely nothing to do with the actual movie. We never see a heaving Thelma Jordon in a strapless gown.
Joan Tetzel was stunning...I've never even heard of her!
Today, the wife would divorce the philandering drunk & take all his $ & the kids.
I'm 73 and I remember vividly having Barbara Stanwick paper dolls. I would design clothes and color them with Crayola. Funny what things we remember so vividly.
Big Valley paper dolls I think!
I loved paper dolls
Paper dolls...sweet memory.
Lydia..think how much those paper dolls could be worth today 2022...
so nice, to have such nice memories of one’s childhood… I wonder what the children of today will be remembering 60-70 years from now…
As a nurse,I cared for her in the ICU in 1985 at St Johns Hospital She was tough. No nonsense . What an honor
What was the matter with her? To be in ICU?
Emphysema
@@sanfordpress54 Oh. My sister passed away on January 7th 2024, Emphysema that went into C O P D. She basically smoked herself to death. We never always saw eye to eye, but she was my sister. I just don't know why she did that to herself and her family.
Oh I luvvvvv Barbara, I've seen allll of her movies. I was a student nurse at Cedars Hosp and I met Lucille Ball, also in ICU
@@brigittepurnell9904 IT was kinda cool to meet these people. I met Liz Taylor. John Ritter. Ann blyth. Leslie Nielsen. Marlon Brando
I remember those old cars too. I'm 81, old memories are a lovely thing to have at this time of our lives. My grandmother was such a blessing.
Stanwyck was one of the BEST actresses of her generation.
Me, born 1983. Mother, 1948. Thank you, Mother for instilling in me appreciation for the old time silver screen! Simple days in the 80s and 90s for me- Mother and Dad talk about how wonderful the simplicity was and calling school off at times to pick cotton- Dad sitting be the radio like watching tv- Howdy Doody, Tall Tales of Paul Bunyan and Pecos Bill and John Chapman(Johnny Appleseed),etc. maybe nostalgia hit me at birth, but doesn’t SOMEBODY need to pass on these absolute priceless works of history that’ll just be forgotten? I hope all you “kids” out there keep the “old” things alive in your children. CG Pixar movies- blehh! Shirley Temple in The Little Princess- Melody Time, and I grew up with Uncle Remus! Playing in the tape player in our 80s suburban- thank you mom for transferring our records to cassettes, and finally finding the “forbidden”- Song of The South- MY Uncle Remus! Melanin differences are only skin deep! I agree about its banning. B’rer Rabbit, B’rer Fox and B’rer Bear are alive with Zippity Doo Dah in my little gal, born 8 years ago. Ha!Truth in many many ways- “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he shall not part from it.” Well, yeah!!! 😇😍
Born in 52, appreciate your comments🙏😇
“That Dame sure knew how to carry a picture” as they used to say and after watching this her performance is right up there with her role in Martha Ivers, another great movie.Thank you for posting really enjoyed it.
You are soo,sooo correct! I love most of ms. Stanwyck 's film. I own her Martha Ivers. 🎥 films! Tks!!!!!!
I really enjoy her work. I didn't think she was a great beauty but she was beguiling and she knew it. And that voice! I read she started smoking when she was 9 years old. Sad to say, but I think it was worth it.
She wasn't in Martha Ivers.
Oops my error 🙄
She mentors Linda Evans on “screen presence”
Did a good job!
No one had/has/ will ever have Barbara's voice.
Yes! Barbara Stanwyk’s voice is what I adore about her 🥰
Oh man this movie was a ride. If you haven't watched it yet, it's totally worth your time. People will say "great movie" to basically anything free on youtube, but this time I really mean it. It's a great movie and you'll enjoy every moment of it. Barbara Stanwyck played her part perfectly.
😅
People will say "great movie" about anything that's free. Ha ha.
Enjoyed this one from 1950, thanks for uploading it. Barbara Stanwyck is superb, she has a real presence. Interesting reading of Stanwyck's difficult upbringing, losing her mother aged 4, the father then walking out on the children , brought up by her sister as well as foster parents and then working full time from 14 onwards before becoming a Broadway actress. She had a tough start in life. I prefer these black and white movies from the 30s, 40s and 50s to much of what Hollywood produces today.
Barbara Stanwyck never disappoints, what a woman.
Yet Barbara Stanwyck never won an Oscar. And she is not alone. I am thinking now of Edward G. Robinson, another great actor who never won an Oscar.
So much for Oscars!
They always have been so overrated, I quit watching when Bob Hope didn't MC anymore I'm going to be 86 yr. Really good acters so overlooked.
Stanwyck and Robinson won our Respect. That's much more worth than that ridiculous statue. It's like with the Rock'n'roll Hall of Fame: so many top notch artists aren't in it, and that too is a giantic joke.
it is interesting that she was one of the most respected and liked actresses in Hollywood by everyone on set and costars. Her ex husband adored her too. She had so many Oscar worthy performances too. Class act!
Stanwyck did get an honorary Oscar for her lifetime achievement. She deserved an Oscar for her wonderful roles she was nominated for.
The only good film role of edward g robinson was in Soylent green when he played that washed up has been actor with zero talent.
WOW what a movie!!! Thanks for a stupendous post. I will never feel after seeing a new movie with all the swearing and car chases, the way I do watching one of these brilliantly acted original old black and whites. They couldn't possibly ever measure up. Triple WOW WOW WOW
There isn't one actress at this time who can even come close to Barbara Stanwyck or others in her noir. Her grace, style, talent and screen presence are unsurpassed. The classics of the 30s, 40s and 50s leave indelible impressions on our heart. We can watch most of them, over and over! We know them word for word! Actors and actresses from those decades could teach today's "stars" a lot about true film making. Back when Hollywood had decency, there was no need for vulgarity, nudity, graphic violence or sex. It was what the audience DIDN'T SEE, that was so enthralling. "Fade out" were the magic words. You knew what they were about to do, you didn't need a visual aid! Close your eyes. Now, just for fun, try to imagine Barbara Stanwyck in the nude with Wendell Corey in bed together, ready to romp! Kinda difficult, huh? Someday, maybe today's "stars" will realize the collective imagination of the audience goes a lot farther than a cheap nude scene..
...
Wow! I couldn’t have said it better myself!!
Though magnificently acted, there is absolutely nothing 'decent' about either of the lead characters in this film. 'Cleve' is absolutely despicable as is 'Thelma'.
@@-oiiio-3993 YES! His wife should have been HAPPY to UNLOAD HIM. Wouldn't even 'swallow' his narcissism to spend Christmas w/ his kids!
@@-oiiio-3993 character development - both were awful …. but never got naked or swore…
What a dope , he's got a perfect wife , young , beautiful and innocent . What does he do ? He gets mixed up with an old raspy criminal broad with a ex and a history of problems.
Stanwyck sure knew how to play the bad “gal.” Thanks for sharing your movies! 😊
Barbara Stanwyck never disappoints!
Agreed Britt, Have you seen "The strange love of Martha Ivers" yet?
Yeah. She's amazing. I don't think she's as beautiful as other leading ladies from her era but she sure is a great actress.
@@lambdalambdalambda257 I actually think she was quite beautiful 😍 ❤
@@lambdalambdalambda257 I think she is one of the most beautiful women..
@@caliden3785 I have to agree with you and she knew how to use those eyes of hers
I was searching for a good movie this rainy night and this did not disappoint! 👍 Thanks!
I'm I'm watching on a sunny early Saturday morning - - the rainy night sounds like a good accompaniment to this.
Thank you for the image for my imagination.
Of course Stanwyck mesmerizes with her characteristic intensity, but one shouldn't overlook all the studio work that makes such a melodrama believable, whether it's Victor Young's quietly persuasive score, one of Wendell Corey's strongest roles, the tight editing that makes the film move right along, or the contributions of all the supporting stars who support the story instead of hogging the limelight. It's a fascinating melodramatic noir!
I remember Barbara Stanwyck but I forgot what movie I saw her in because I was still in Junior high school when I saw the movie.
This was a awesome movie. It was criminal for Barbara Stanwyck to not have won an Oscar.
R u kidding. Cant stand her. Such a dirty dog . DOMETHING ABOUT HER THAT ALWAYS RUBBED ME WRONG. WENDEL COREY IS GREAT ACTOR..
She got honorary one
She's tends to be a bit overacting
Wendell corey played a hen pecked husband in 'harriet craig' with joan crawford
I remember when Barbra Streisand won Best Actress over Barbara Stanwyk. My aunt was disappointed and said that Stanwyk was a much better actress. Why do I still remember that, all these years later? Maybe because she was right. Streisand won due to other reasons. The beginning of the end of good cinema....
Streisand didn't deserve it
Barbara Stanwyck was not nominated for an Oscar in 1968, the year Barbra Streisand and Katharine Hepburn both won Oscars in a tie.
@@notmypotato3730 Ms. Streisand and Ms. Hepburn both deserved their Oscars in 1968; Ms. Stanwyck was not nominated.
Ha..
Your memory is....completely wrong! Quite funny how you believe you remember something so well, that never happened. I hope you never give testimony in court.
@@notmypotato3730 ahhhhhh, many folks including the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences would disagree.
One thing you can never accuse Barbara Stanwyck of.....is being a lousey actress. She is just terrific in any role she plays.
Her acting can be overwhelming. Over acting is normal then
I'm convinced, Barbara at some point or another got away with murder. She made me believe that side of her in several movies. She was just that convincing. Probably the most believable in her profession. WHAT A WOMAN ❤😁👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻🇺🇲
Yes, like I was just saying---"Double Indemnity" She totally made you believe they she could do all that! And almost like you could look over your shoulder, and 'anyone' could be 'that person'.
Ha! You are both paranoid. Barbara Stanwyck never murdered anyone. I am attorney representing her estate and I am going to sue you for liable and have you committed for paranoid insanity.
@@jamesragsdale8202 LOL---Good one!---Pretty sure you 'got' that I was saying that her characters made you believe that the most ordinary seeming people could be hiding the capacity to 'go there'. Just look how her character manipulated Fred McMurray's poor ordinary 'schlep' into 'going there'. She barely gave him the chance to 'catch his breath' every time he looked at her, bf. she would talk him into the 'next step'.🥵 And Fred McMurray rarely gets the credit he deserves as an actor!
@@theresefotiou7097 I can't believe that I pay an incredible actress a compliment of her attributes and some leftist gets bent. Can't even type on Utube without a threat.
@@theresefotiou7097 I've lost faith in man.
Anything with Barbara Stanwyck in it is great. Wonderful actress
Barbara Stanwyck? Yes please.
Last time I checked, there are ZERO Barbara Stanwyck movies on Netflix. Shameful.
Aaaah the good old 50's ....when men were men and didn’t give a frick about the children....😂
Thank you again Broken Trout for your time putting quality films in here ad free as well. You are amongst a couple of people I subscribe to here for the quality you put on. Very much appreciated. This is definitely one of the greatest noir films ever. The look in her eyes at the very end what a talent Barbara was.

Love these old 40s gems! Watched in honor of Barbara’s birthday, 7/16/1907. Happy Heavenly Birthday Barbara!
Stanwyck did not have Hollywood's idea of the perfect female figure. She was broad-shouldered, long-waisted, with a flat derriere. They balanced her proportions with styles that looked best with a wide shoulder. They gave her wide waistbands to shorten her long torso. And they often gave her a deep peplum or a gathered skirt to balance out the shoulders and give her fullness at the rear. My thanks to Barbra for her figure and to those artful designers. My figure has those same unbalanced proportions. When I wanted to look my best I only had to imitate a "Stanwyck Style"
I wished my bust was Barbara’s! She had a beautiful figure. I still can SEE 👀 her in Thornbirds wearing that dark blue gown wanting Richard Chamberlain to make love to her….then insulted when he didn’t! That was acting even at the great age of 82!
Great overview of the way designers dressed Barbara Stanwyck! I love how they styled her differently in Lady Eve as Jean and Eve. I ADORE her, but when I was a young I only knew her from tv like Big Valley and Thornbirds (in which she was brilliant, despite the rather icky plot). Now I’ve seen lots of Stanwyck in pre-code, romances, comedies, noir. She was fantastic. Regardless of their abilities, my mom was always critical of the appearances of actresses 😉-she disapproved of Joan Crawford’s shoulder pads and she said something funny about Stanwyck- that her bust was like two golf balls on cardboard 😂
Whatever???? Barbara Stanwyck was the hottest actress EVER, despite your psychological "issues"!!!!!
@@georgejcking just pointing out my mother's silly hangups. I adore Barbara. She really was the best. She could play anything and was incredibly sexy when the part called for it. That voice, those eyes....
Stanwick was absolutely beautiful, heartbreakingly so, w/ precision, nonstereotypic features that made ya wanna explore her as closely as possible, including picking her mind 💜💜💜💜💜.
Ah nothing says desirable like a cheating (on his wedding anniversary too) drink driving husband, how can any gal resit that! Jeez glad times have changed. But the mens egos remain thinking that is desirable!
She played him like a fiddle
Barbara Stanwyck was an amazing actress. Fine film
Love Barbara Stanwyck in movies! Really good movie 🎥! It was good seeing Wendell Corey in this movie 🎥! A most excellent movie 🎥!
No one did female angst quite like Barbara Stanwick….something in that voice…
Thank you BT! I love this movie. Barbara Stanwyck is a class act.
Ms. Stanwyck knew all the crew's names and would even ask how their children were doing. How times have changed.
What a great movie from start to finish. Thanks again and Happy New Year 2019!!!
Barbra Stanwyck was pure class. No actor today could hold a candle to her.
There are so many crew members on set, it's hard to remember them all, but I got your message.
Barbara Stanwyck reminds me of a Swedish actress named Eva Dahlbeck.Look her up!
I was born in 1972 so missed the classic period of these films. It was around the late 1980s when they used to show old films on tv in the weekend I adopted a love for this old era of movies. Still watch them regular. Great work Broken Trout.

Barbara Stanwyck always delivers!!!
Good movie ! I love noir movies ! And with the beautiful Barbara Stanwyck ! She is 43 in this movie, and such a babe ! Still a hottie, and playing leading lady at that age ! Amazing , that she can still "Bring It", in a Hollywood era where most leading ladies were 16 to 25 years old !
To me most attractive actress I have seen on you tube b &w films
Stunningly beautiful a f - and then she could act as well
No fun being a wife if "the dame" is Barbara Stanwyck ! We guys are all such suckers !
This movie's got a 6.9 out of 10 on imdB ratings, to me, it's a 9 out of 10, it was very good. Stanwyck is her usual "Double Indemnity" type broad.
Barbara Stanwyck was the best. I thought I'd seen all the good movies, but had somehow missed this one.
"And the Oscar goes to....
Barbara Stanwyck!"
Great movie! Does anyone else take notice of how in these movies they think very little of driving drunk? Not just this movie but just overall. It seems like something they don’t think twice about doing.
In the late '70's it was acceptable. One just drove carefully. And if you were totally plastered, you were just going to wreck your own car.
They also smoke when they're pregnant.
Thats how it was, my father drove home, pull up outside our house, open car door and fall out onto the pavement. Sometimes a neighbour would have to pick him up and carry him indoors. He never had an accident.
This is a masterpiece. Thank you so much for sharing this movie , I cried . .Barbara Stanwick one of the brightest star .
Finding Stanwyck here on youtube is always a treat. Thank you!
I can watch Barbara Stanwyck 's movies all day long and every day.
That's life. First class drama with first class actors and actresses. There's something about the eyes and mouth of Barbara Stanwyck that makes her the perfect conniving and alluring Femme Fatale. The film seems so fresh. It hardly points to 1950 if it wasn't for the cars, perhaps. - and the morals.
What morals? He was a cheat and she was a fornicator and killer.
Good one, BT! I only wish that Dan Duryea could have played the part of cleave! Love Dan Duryea!
Nah, but he would have perfect as Tony!
@@jackflanagle6079 yeah well Cleave had a starring role in this movie whereas Tony had a bit-part.... my guy Dan should have had the starring part!! And you know he plays a good drunk oh, you should see him in the movie Black Angel.... one of his greatest works!!
@@suzannal6047 For a good 'drunk' scene, go to the very end of "The Killers" (1964) where a dying Lee Marvin staggers out of a house and dies on the drive, falling onto his back. It seems that Marvin arrived staggering drunk on the set and the director cleverly got him to film this scene in that state.
@@None-zc5vg They used Sterling Hayden’s alcoholic condition for his scenes in Altman’s neo noir The Long Goodbye. He was an amazing person so it’s sad he succumbed to substance abuse.
Barbara Stanwyck played almost every role but never being a victim,as she said
She is my all time favorite; yet she was the victim of love in a film. See film, "Clash By Night".
She may be VICTIMIZED - but never a victim!
I was one year old. Barbara Stanwyck was and is one of the greatest , if that wasn’t the best death scene I’ve ever seen, no pun intended, in movies and we’ve all seen plenty. And all-around great movie and cast. I’m a musician. If you pay particular attention to the score, every movement is punctuated with music. Of course you don’t think about it in those terms. No stock footage in this baby. No I’m going to have to watch all of her movies back to back. Lol.🎉
Ever since the masterpiece that is Double Indemnity came to existence, 200 films of that era were produced that pretended to mimic it and copy it.. but never had one of them come to be Double Indemnity, it is the quintessential Shakespearean Noir.. The gem of the collection for countless reasons.. Hollywood has been a profit driven copy machine from the beginning..
Great comment Mahmoud, thanks.
God that was great. Stanwyck is incomparable
Always impressed with the complexity she could bring to a role, it seems effortless for her but when you're watching for time she is Thelma Jordan
Excellent. Thanks for posting this.
You are welcome John.
Meet John Doe and Ball of Fire were two more you can add to the list.
Stanwyck def my fave
Stanwyck was one of the best actresses in film noir and nominated twice for best actress.
Actually nominated 4 times. She deserved many more nominations and deserved to win. But she was a rare freelance actress during the studio era. That’s why she never won an Oscar during her career, but the modern members of The Academy felt she deserved an honorary Oscar. If you weren’t under contract to a major studio like Davis at Warner Brothers, Hepburn at RKO, then MGM, etc., you had a terrible disadvantage. Back then the studios owned the movie theaters as well. They were guaranteed distribution because they owned the cinemas. Stanwyck, “Missy,” was one of a kind. She never became a caricature of herself. She was an actress of the first order. She was so versatile, doing drama, Noir, westerns, comedies, historical films. So talented. 🎬❤️
🙂💯💛💙💜
Another well done performance by Barbara Stanwyk . Martha Ivers , The Lady Gambles , plus many more performances , she really nailed it . I truly enjoy those films .
Thank you, BT. Excellent from start to finish. Ms. Stanwyck, A+++++
My favorite actress ❤
Adultery, deception and murder. Kissing a man who has been drinking and smoking all night..disgusting. And his life is ruined.
Really the best thing to do instead of coming home late. Is to come home in 3 days - no calls nothing…
THANK YOU HAPPY TO WATCH THIS MOVIE AGAIN BARBARA STANWYCK AND WENDELL COREY ARE AMAZING ACTORS I LOVE ALL THEIR MOVIES EVEN WHEN THEY PLAY THE BAD GUYS
Thanks for including Wendell Corey. A fantastic actor, he was perfectly suited for noirs.
@@gingerli5820 Happy New Year and A Good 2022
How morals change: showing a married couple sleeping in the same bed was not allowed, but driving home drunk was de rigueur.
Marlene Dietrich was making jokes about the American moral standards in Hollywood! "It 's not allowed showing a bed with a married couple in it but behind the scene unmarried actors are playing around."..
Forgotten how good this movie was as well as Martha Ivers and double indemnity she excelled At All roles she was a triumph also enjoyed her in big valley and of course her classic comedy role in Christmas in Connecticut
It was a sad fact that the actor who plays the troubled district attorney, Wyndall Cory actually died at age 54 of cirrhosis of the liver due to chronic alcoholism. 😱😱😱🥺🥺🥺
Well they got one thing right, Wendell Corey was a notorious drunk...
He died at ,54yrs of age from the drink
If that man is 35 yrs old it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime. He's all of 45 for sure.
They seemed to appear older a generation ago. They died younger too.
He was 35 when the movie was made. But he probably looked much older because of his chronic alcoholism, which he died from at age 54.
Hitchcock didn't win an Oscar either. So what!
YOU WONT SEE A MOVIE 🎥 OF THIS QUALITY IN TODAYS MOVIE WORLD THAT'S FOR SURE
Why--Stanwyck's characters never lot faith in men.---Faith that she could get a 'man' to do anything, LOL---Seriously, whoever mentioned The Oscars is right. It's ridiculous she never gpt one.
John Schiflette above comment meant for your's
I guess I need that faith, but it means I'll be manipulative
"lost faith"
Wasn't expecting Thelma to do that! A tough movie from beginning to end.
One of my favorites is Remember the Night. Stanwyck and MacMurray’s chemistry is great in that! She is amazing in the scene where he brings her to visit her mother before taking her back home with him for Christmas. Truly gut-wrenching. Some people are raised by wolves.
Yes -- absolutely chilling scene.
It's a tradition for me to watch "Remember the Night" and "Christmas in Connecticut" each Christmas season.
Both are amazing, but "Remember the Night" just holds a special place in my heart.
Susan, I just watched Remember the Night based on your comment. I have never even heard of this movie! It's wonderful! Thanks so much.
Wow that scene when she’s telling him aunt Vera was dead 38:00 THEY’RE STANDING BEHIND BARS! God I love old movies.
Kathy~
Very observant of you. I didn't think of that when I saw that scene. But, I thought she was innocent.
Oscar level acting on her part.
Just fabulous.
🍸
I'm working on seeing all of Barbara's works. I find (so far) that her films all have this in common. Of the female who is head-strong, with the lead male being a daisy who can't/will not stand up for themselves and thus ends up being the dominant character. One thing about it is, if you want to see a well done movie, Barbara is the go to gal to watch.
I think her best work was playing Mary Carson in The Thornbirds miniseries
It is noticeable that none of the many commenters who say that they like all these good old films with no sex and violence as compared to today's films are present.
That's your best comment. There is every bit of sex.
@@lisalochridge1251 That is the point.
Too busy gawking at Ms Stanwyk
oh the drama, the passion, the poignancy, the acting, the music....all oh so slightly over the top, and I love it! Good storylines, I love the old classics like this
What an original plot! I think that pretty much sums up this excellent production.
NOT a fan of super drunk people.
This movie makes a really good point why people should always strive to make their marriage work. Poor assistant DA wouldnt be in this trouble had he just went home to his wife. Good drama movie. Hollywood dont make movies like this anymore.
I don’t feel sorry for the DA. He wasn’t appreciated to his wife so he cheated on her and unfortunately for him karma took its place at the end.
She aged so gracefully too on The Big Valley.
Awesome Noir classic!
One of my favorites!
Love Stanwyck in this one, as they say, she works all, and, does everything but
"chew the scenery" !
Really the cool cucumber isn’t she? An intriguing plot and I loved the casting and that the wife was a sympathetic character. I hadn’t seen this Stanwyck film a few years ago when I hunted her films. Thank you 😊
Cleeve......what kind of name is that
It's certainly not British English. Maybe they're mispronouncing Clive.
maybe short for Cleveland.
There's a Cleve in the movie "Milk."
