- What is Caged / Detective Story about?
- CAGED, 1950, Warner Bros., 96 min. Dir. John Cromwell. Flat-out the best “women behind bars” movie ever made! Sentenced to prison for her role in a failed robbery that killed her husband, vulnerable innocent Marie Allen (the late, great Eleanor Parker in an Oscar nominated role) undergoes a degrading transformation in “the joint.” Parker gives the performance of her career, supported by a cell block of sensational actresses.
DETECTIVE STORY, 1951, Paramount, 103 min. Dir. William Wyler. Eleanor Parker’s second Best Actress nomination in as many years is a memorable turn as the unfortunate wife of tormented NYPD detective Kirk Douglas in a splendid screen adaptation of Sidney Kingsley’s hit play. Powerfully helmed by William Wyler and nominated for four Academy Awards. Co-starring William Bendix, Lee Grant, George Macready, Cathy O’Donnell, Horace McMahon, Gladys George, Joseph Wiseman, Gerald Mohr and Frank Faylen.
