Title: Marvelous Rediscovered Noir
Product review: Fans of Lucille Ball or director Douglas Sirk are in for a treat with this one. Interesting use of genre conventions in plot (even after you've guessed the killer, still fun), nice cinematography which comes up beautifully in Kino's DVD transfer. Excellent supporting cast, with such stalwarts as Cedric Hardwick and Charles Coburn providing pleasurable backup to star turns from George Sanders and Ball. Nice to see how many subtle small touches Lucy brings to her characterization, and she looks ravishing, even in black and white. LURED is a great Saturday night popcorn movie!
