Review of Scarlet Street (1945) by Daniel S — 01 Oct 2015

Im a big fan of Fritz Langs Metropolis, and his M is also a classic, but I was curious to see how hed transfer to making American films, im happy to say this one def was a success, Robinson is a great actor, I can watch him in almost any role, and here he plays against type as a timid type, actually all the acting in this is very good, especially Duryea as the sleazy bf of the heroine, I will admit everyone in the movie is flawed and you really dont root for anyone to "win" but credit to Lang for making it still move fast and be entertaining, and the actors for making their characters engaging to watch.
