Say hello to melodrama as Humphry Bogart plays an angry, struggling screenwriter who is pinned for the murder of a hatcheck girl. The only person who can give him an alibi is his damaged neighbor Gloria Grahame… but is he truly innocent? A heart-wrenching and suspenseful look at hope in the face of angst, this is Bogart and Grahame at their best. Our Film Noir Series, The Reckless Kind, continues with talks with David Weir and Imogen Sara Smith and screenings of Nicholas Ray’s “In a Lonely Place”.
