Leaving January 31
•
1h 22m
Directed by Richard Wallace • 1947 • United States
Starring Glenn Ford, Janis Carter, Barry Sullivan
A bad pair of brakes strands gruff, takes-no-BS trucker Mike (Glenn Ford) in a small town where the locals aren’t all that friendly—save for blonde bartender Paula (Janis Carter), who soon has him twisted around her little finger and unwittingly mixed up in a deadly embezzlement scheme. A sizzling Carter sinks her teeth into one of her precious few substantial roles as a femme fatale for the ages while noir icon Glenn Ford, coming off his star-making turn in GILDA, once again plays an all-American guy who could, maybe, turn out to be a real creep.
