More Info

IN A LONELY PLACE, 1950, Sony Repertory, 94 min. Dir. Nicholas Ray. A brilliant, moody drama of a screenwriter (Humphrey Bogart) accused of murder, and the starlet (Gloria Grahame) afraid to trust him. On one level, a poisonous rejection of all things Hollywood; on another, a love triangle of almost demonic intensity between the director and his two stars. Although Dorothy B. Hughes’ original novel was also possessed of a desolate ending, Ray’s equally downbeat climax was quite different and undoubtedly did not find favor with the studio powers-that-be. BITTER VICTORY, 1957, Sony Repertory, 103 min. Captain Richard Burton is at odds with his major played by Curt Jurgens, both on a desert mission to steal documents during WWII. Burton had left Jurgens’ wife (Ruth Roman) heartbroken years before, and this further poisons their relationship.
