Movie Review - The Dark Corner
The Dark Corner (1946)
directed by Henry Hathaway
rating: 3 out of 5 jalapeños
on DVD from Netflix
"Kathleen," more than Lucille Ball, is this noir's saving grace. She's a secretary who's into the idea of a courting employer; she cleans up after an ugly murder; she flies true. Only I can't help but think that Mark Stevens' Bradford Galt gave dropping LB for his double-crossing ex-partner's darling Clementine at least a thought in her helpless, broken final scene.
