Set during the Depression, this story concerns an older man and his attractive young wife, who take on drifter Frank Chambers as an employee at their roadside cafe. Cora, the unhappy wife, is searching for a way out of her drab day-to-day existence. Soon she and Frank develop lustful feelings for each other, and their passions grow until they plan a new life together -- a new life that begins with her husband's murder.

I can't help it, but I was really expecting much more here. First of all, it's Lana Turner, who just didn't click with me, and because of that, I didn't really enjoy the whole movie. The performances are not something that impressed me here at all. The source material seems good, the story itself is not bad, but this execution, I really don't consider it exceptional.

It's relative, but there are times when even Lana is able to please. Yet I must be overwhelmed by the obligatory screenings outside my genre. Then again, even iconic noir can dazzle just by the way Lana wears all those white costumes and only exceptionally dons black... As a whole, the film is extremely overcomplicated, but it has an excellent atmosphere and absolutely ideal performances. I'm looking at you, Leon Ames.
