Carol Ohmart is married to James Gregory. That, certainly doesn't bode well.
"The Scarlet Hour" is an outstanding surprise for noir fans : directed by Michael Curtiz in 1956, it is so rarely seen. And it deserves to be rediscovered on DVD.
A surprisingly tough piece of pulp fiction from an unlikely source. Michael Curtiz made "The Scarlet Hour" in 1956 but it wasn't really a success, perhaps because its leads, newcomers Carol Ohmart and Tom Tryon, weren't really up to the job.
The Scarlet Hour is directed by Micahel Curtiz and written by Rip Van Ronkel, Frank Tashlin and John Lucas. It stars Carol Ohmart, Tom Tryon, E.
Desperate housewife wants to run off with her lover, and to get the much-needed cash they rip off a couple of jewel thieves. The jealous husband gets wise to their scheme and tries to beat his wife into submission.
This is a superb film noir directed by Michael Curtiz, which has never been officially reissued in video or DVD format. The film introduces three new lead players, Carol Ohmart, Ton Tryon, and Elaine Stritch, who here all appear in their first feature film.
Very rare and underappreciated mystery with a couple overhearing a jewel heist and plan to intercede on their plans. The woman is cheating on her husband and complications naturally follow.
She's a tramp married to a violent older man, He's an employee of that very jealous husband who knows she's a tramp but can't prove it. They are desperate to escape her miserable existence, but she's reluctant to leave the financial support she gets behind.
