And he really pulls it off, IMO.Miguelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04531415630123832435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8067902550504189621.post-16339831260470956222010-10-12T08:56:58.060+01:002010-10-12T08:56:58.060+01:00I saw this a few weeks ago - great review, Miguel....I saw this a few weeks ago - great review, Miguel. I especially like your description of Stanwyck's lack of emotion in this - she is such a warm actress in some of her earlier roles, but in this she turns off all that warmth and seems icy cold. I also love Edward G Robinson in this - not so sure about Fred MacMurray, though I realise it is part of the point that he seems rather colourless.Judyhttp://movieclassics.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
