It is a performances centric movie
i must have seen a different film!!
It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Janis Carter steals this film; she is the femme fatale who is responsible for much of the mayhem that takes place in the movie. Glen Ford (Superman's dad) does a fine job as the pigeon that is set up by everyone in the town except the newspaper boy. Barry Sullivan plays his role with the usual suave faire that he was capable of in several of his other roles. The film has excellent atmosphere and dialogue, and suffer from only one silly occurrence, which I will not mention, as it would be a spoiler. But a high school kid would know better than to commit this mistake. Other than that, the film is very watchable, and better than most other films from this genre. Recommended.
Film noir was Janis Carter, Glenn Ford and Barry Sullivan in the midst of quite an interesting story.Miserable with his wife, played by Karen Morley, Sullivan, a bank Vice President, has an affair with Carter and the 2 plot the demise of a victim, similar in built to Sullivan so that they can abscond with lots of money.Glenn Ford, a miner, becomes their target, but fate intervenes and Carter falls for Lambert (Ford) instead so she bumps off Sullivan.Old prospector, Edgar Buchanan, gets blamed as he had threatened Sullivan when the latter turned down his request for a loan.The twists and turns makes this an interesting film. The only problem here is the rush act that the picture made to end after 1 hour and 24 minutes.
Framed casts Glenn Ford as the drifter with a chip on his shoulder who doesn't make a good impression on his first arrival in town. He takes a job driving a truck with faulty brakes that crashes into Edgar Buchanan's car and gets himself arrested in the process.A mysterious blond waitress played by Janis Carter pays his fine and gets him out of a 10 day jail sentence. For what she's got in mind, it would have been better if he took the 10 days.She's the tootsie on the side of Barry Sullivan the Vice President of a local bank by marrying the boss's daughter. He's embezzled a whole lot of cash and wants to run away with Carter. But Carter starts to develop ideas of her own.This starts the web of a whole lot of double crossing and dirty dealing by the feckless lovers. Framed is a nice little noir film and I love that Maltese Falcon ending.
This little film, made by Columbia Studios, is very enjoyable!! All about a woman who is greedy and wants to get hold of a quarter of a million dollars and plans to rob a bank with the bank president himself, but then something goes awry and well........ you will just have to watch this great B-movie to find out the rest, but I assure you that it is a film that is very good!! Nice work by Glenn Ford and Janis Carter. This film is a bit like "Double Indemnity", only with a twist ending, and a lower budget. Oh, to have this released on DVD--I would be so happy. I just love these old black and white film noir type films from the 1940's and 1950's.
