Review of The Postman Always Rings Twice (1946) by Kathy B — 22 Jul 2007

Lana turner is so stunning, it is very easy to imagine how a man might fall for her and agree to murder her husband. a great film, very dark and psychological.

QThe Film Noir genre , God I love it. The sexualized otherness, that woman of ill repute, that handsome man that u usually just want to bed…

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

I've seen several adaptations of this story myself, nothing at all matched what we saw in Tay Garnett's The Postman Always Rings Twice…

It could have been a better film noir without the many coincidences. Lana Turner is a hot babe…

I saw this many years ago when it first came out on video; just watched it again. If you like film noir, this is a great example…

The affair starts in such a ridiculously implausable way. both of lana's relationships are implausible beyond absurdity…

I really enjoyed the twists and turns the journey this well-crafted tale takes…

What could be great noir ends up being death-row redemption drama. Eechh…

I kept waiting for this to be awesome. It isn't. :(…

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