Black Angel (1946)

[dfordoom]

Black Angel (1946), a slightly underrated film noir based on a Cornell Woolrich story. A woman tries to prove her husband's innocence. Dan Duryea is menacing and self-pitying. Peter Lorre in top form. Lots of Woolrichian twistedness. Good movie.

Here's my review.

Any film no9ir with Dan Duryea is well wqorth seeing!

Yes, and in this one Duryea gives a fascinatingly complex performance. You're never quite sure about the character, and that's what makes the movie so interesting.

Agreed on all points!
