Unscrupulous con woman gets involved in murder.
a rare film that's a late entry into the noir collection...not exhibiting that many shadows and night scenes, the story line still is most apropos....what you have is a triangle similar to fritz lang's 'human desire' with the added kicker of a private detective....the movie belongs to anne baxter who previously starred in 'blue gardenia' and a year later would be cast in 'chase a crooked shadow'...but this may be her most demonstrative role among the three terrific films....not quite the evil femme fatale of 'body heat', still she carries gloria grahame's role in 'human desire' to a more frantic level..sterling hayden is the male friend who gets taken for the ride...and he underplays his position in an uncharacteristically but perfect way....
