Scarlet Street
A film by
fritz lang
Classic noir from
acclaimed Austrian director Fritz Lang, in his American phase.
Trapped in a loveless
marriage, Chris Cross (Edward G. Robinson) finds solace in art, and dreams that
one day a beautiful girl will love him. When one stumbles across his path,
under violent circumstances, he plays the hero, then tells a lie that sends them
both spiralling on a path of deceit and destruction. Joan Bennett is gloriously
amoral as Kitty, and her paramour, Johnny Prince, (Dan Duryea) is a feckless
heel of the highest order. Crisply understated performances, blackmail
and mental torment combine to produce a stunningly original film, which was
initially banned by the New York State Censor Board because of its moral
ambiguity – allegedly the first film in which a criminal goes unpunished for a
crime.
1945, English
Language, 103 minutes. Based on the French novel La Chienne (The Bitch) by Georges de La Fouchardière.
