Orson Welles plays a Nazi who is so smart that he’s destroyed all evidence of who he is and passed himself off as not German to a small town in the middle of America, but still buries bodies in shallow graves within walking distance of his house. Lots of strong performances make the nonsense of the story work.
Also: Loretta Young and Edward G. Robinson seem to be having an eyebrow contest. Loretta is winning. And speaking of Loretta:
This is exactly the kind of person that made me start this Walk of Fame project. An Acadamey Award winner who was in over 100 films, and I’d somehow seen none of them. But what you probably want to know is “did she have a recipe for chicken curry?”
This movie officially finishes 6100 Hollywood Boulevard on the Walk of Fame! It’s my first step eastward, and it only took three days! At this rate I’ll be done in less than a couple of decades!
Today’s poster doesn’t quite make sense, but I loved it and the movie it came from so much that I forced it to work. Mostly.
