A big-value, suitably noirish double-bill of Gloria Grahame classics to complement the return of Film Stars Don’t Die in Liverpool.
Fritz Lang‘s crime thriller The Big Heat caused controversy back in 1953 because of a scene in which Ms. Grahame is scalded by hot coffee chucked by wrong ‘un Lee Marvin. This was originally trimmed by the censor, but has now been restored and is actually pretty tame. In Nicholas Ray‘s great film industry thriller In a Lonely Place, she plays the soulmate of a screenwriter (Humphrey Bogart) who’s accused of murder.
