OT: Phantom Lady
« on: April 22, 2011, 06:07:03 PM »
Airing 9:30 A.M. EST on TCM.
This is a nifty little B picture from Universal. 1944. A favorite of mine. Haven't seen it on TV in years. Tune in. You won't be disappointed.

Leonard Maltin:
D: Robert Siodmak. Ella Raines, Franchot Tone, Alan Curtis, Thomas Gomez, Elisha Cook, Jr., Fay Helm, Andrew Tombes, Regis Toomey. First-rate suspense yarn of innocent man (Curtis) framed for murder of his wife. Secretary Raines seeks real killer with help of Curtis' best friend (Tone) and detective (Gomez). Sexual innuendo in drumming scene with Cook is simply astonishing--the solo was reportedly dubbed by Buddy Rich. Based on a Cornell Woolrich novel; screenplay by Bernard C.
I get a kick out of these guys who think they're so clean, when all the time they're trying to cover up their dirt.
