In truth...I've only just come across this film. In truth, Joan Bennett has been one of those stellar actors whose work I put on the back burner and decided to watch "some day." That day has arrived, and -boy!- does she give you your money's worth.<br /><br />Never seen Scarlet Street. I'll need to search for it...<br />Thanks, Ivan.<br /><br />-JavaJavaBeanRushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05653117187583244224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22615056.post-31415094597202106642013-11-11T15:17:14.352-05:002013-11-11T15:17:14.352-05:00I am one of the world's most enthusiastic prom...I am one of the world's most enthusiastic promoters of this film - it seems like every time it makes the rounds on TCM, I tell people to watch it if they haven't already. It's most assuredly my favorite Joan Bennett film, an amazing transition from her femme fatale roles like <b>The Woman in the Window</b> and <b>Scarlet Street</b> to the more matronly stuff of <b>Father of the Bride</b> and <b>Father's Little Dividend</b>. It's not available on Region 1 DVD but I do have a copy of a Region 2 disc and it's worth a flutter.Ivan G Shreve Jrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04067177808320053382noreply@blogger.com
