More Reviews of The Postman Always Rings Twice

This is one of the most interesting films noir I've seen, and it brings us a story based on a novel written and that would be adapted to cinema…

Gripping tale doubles as allegory about exploited workers and economic revolt…

Lana turner alone makes this movie great. She is amazing with her attitude and beauty. I was amazed at the harmlessness of the innuendos…

Mad chemistry brewing between Lana Turner and John Garfield…

Atmospheric story of lust, desire and murder…

Kinda falls apart here or there but eventually gets back onto the rails. Most of the movie is very good though. Lots of fun…

I don't care for ether version, I hate the story…

Lana Turner in her golden age, the most beautiful woman in the world…

Enjoyable noir that seems to plod a little…

It felt rather rambling, along with false endings…
