His Kind of Woman!
Directed by John Farrow
Written by Frank Fenton, Jack Leonard
U.S.A., 1951
John Farrow’s His Kind of Woman! has it all, and so, so much more. Sometimes the best entries in a film genre or series are the ones that need to add different ingredients to spice things up a little bit. Certain conventions must be adhered to, but the development of some less expected qualities may prove to be much welcomed additions. With a movie that tries to be so big, brilliant and perfect, it is small wonder that the famous Howard Hughes filled the role of producer. What we end up with is a hybrid between a traditional film noir entry and something out of left field.
The story evolves slowly, with a strong sense of mystery hanging around as to the real objectives until the final lap. Better still, Farrow reveals...
