(1949 aka KILLER BAIT) Lizabeth Scott, Don Defoe, Dan Duryea, Arthur Kennedy. Scott turns in one of the best “femme fatale” performances of all time as she portrays a scheming woman who eliminates everyone in her way as she tries to make off with 60-grand in blackmail money. Some of the scenes between Duryea and Scott are electric..."You are a tiger!" An excellent script, top production values and great performances make this one of the very best “film noir” titles we offer. Highly recommended. Kathleen Turner's performance in Body Heat (1981) was likely inspired by Scott's amazing portrayal of Jane Palmer, the woman with a heart of ice. One of the best. From 35mm.
