More Info:
Christopher 'Chris' Cross (Edward G. Robinson) is an amateur painter and cashier for a clothing retailer. He is bored with his life and work, and especially his shrew of a wife, Adele (Rosalind Ivan). After a work celebration for his twenty-five years of service, Chris sees his employer getting into a car with a much younger woman. As Chris walks home he tells a co-worker he wonders what it would be like to be loved by a young girl. Suddenly, he comes across a woman being attacked by a man. Chris beats the attacker off with his umbrella. The woman he has defended is Kitty (Joan Bennett), a fast-talking femme fatale. Chris is unaware that Kitty's attacker is Johnny (Dan Duryea), Kitty's brutish boyfriend. It isn't long before the plot thickens and everything spirals out of control in Chris' life. This film is a powerful and often disturbing portrait of human relationships, emotions and consequences. A must-see film! (101 minutes - 1945 - Black & White - 4:3)Email Signup
