Review of Pushover (1954) by Jay N — 06 Jul 2010
Although it's a reworking of MacMurray's far superior Double Indemnity this is still a decent little crime caper. Kim Novak is utterly ravishing in her first big screen role, showing herself already possessing undeniable screen presence and star charisma.
Even if she never was the best actress on the block she registers on screen, you eye is drawn to her even when she isn't saying anything. There's also solid support from Phil Carey and Dorothy Malone and efficient direction by Quine.
Look very fast for a dark haired Marion Ross in a quick bit walking out of a building with Dorothy Malone.
