From Robert Siodmak, the legendary director of The Spiral Staircase, The Killers, and Phantom Lady, comes this classic film noir about an unhappily married shopkeeper who pines for a younger woman. Acting great Charles Laughton stars as Philip Marshall, who has fallen for a beautiful young stenographer (Ella Raines). But after Philip’s wife dies under shady circumstances, a cunning blackmailer and a relentless detective close in, tightening the noose around Philip as his carefully guarded secret begins to unravel. (USA, 1945, 85 mins, English | Dir. Robert Siodmak)
