File under average

 

The File on Thelma Jordon (1950)


Directed by Robert Siodmak this film stars Barbara Stanwyck and Wendell Corey. A woman seduces a married assistant district attorney then gets into legal trouble.


It takes a while for this film to get going and the death bed confession at the end is a bit forced, otherwise this is a decent noir film. Many of the familiar genre elements are here, nothing that special. All in all there is a reason you have likely not heard of this one, it is nothing special.


3/5
