About this product

Product Information

Two true film noir classics are collected here. In SCARLET STREET, a remake of Jean Renoir's controversial 1931 film LA CHIENNE, Christopher Cross (Edward G. Robinson)--a quiet, staid cashier and dedicated Sunday painter--feels consumed by passion for the first time in his life when he meets pretty, manipulative Kitty. The two become involved, but Kitty is really in love with petty crook Johnny, and keeps Christopher around simply for his money. In order to impress his precious mistress, Cross embezzles funds from his employer. He doesn't realize, however, that Kitty and Johnny are also getting rich on his paintings, which are becoming a huge success under Kitty's name. When Christopher's theft comes to light, he loses his job and his dignity. And when he seeks out Kitty for solace, he discovers her in Johnny's embrace. The film explodes in its violent climax, and with it Lang creates perhaps his most chilling film noir work. The tightly structured story and the evocative paintings that lie symbolically at the center of the plot create a visual and psychological atmosphere of suspense, filled with double meanings and games of representation and appearance, all pointing toward a brutal final act, motivated by Cross's inner demons and repressed emotions.Orson Welles directed and starred in THE STRANGER, a tense black-and-white thriller that Welles made for maverick producer Sam Spiegel. Welles portrays Charles Rankin, a respected academic at a prominent Connecticut college. He seems to have the perfect life: a beautiful new wife, Mary (Loretta Young), and a charming home in a small town that holds him in high esteem. Enter Mr. Wilson (Edward G. Robinson), a detective on the hunt for Nazi war criminal Franz Kindler. The appearance of Mr. Wilson threatens to reveal that underneath this idyllic veneer is a secret that could tear everything apart. Although many of Welles's most interesting scenes wound up on the cutting-room floor when Spiegel reedited the film, THE STRANGER is still multilayered, complex, and fascinating. The scenes between Welles and Robinson are intellectually gripping, leading up to the stylized, shocking conclusion. As with so many of Welles's films, he was unhappy with the final result, but the viewer won't be.

    One of Those Movies You Watch in THE DARK......

    Orson Welles' THE STRANGER.... This is one good film. Welles plays a Nazi war criminal, doggedly pursued by special agent Edward G. Robinson , to a sleepy New England town. There's a lot more. The acting, the story, even the sets are well worth your time....but what puts it all together in a pseudo paranoid, if not creepy feel is the music. This haunting background music.....Watch and listen carefully...... Do not miss the co-feature, SCARLET STREET, with Robinson back in fine form, this time as a pawn for a couple of cons. Recommended.

    Scarlet st. The stranger

    Xcellent noir films, stranger was a little wiggly in background in begining part but panned out later. Scarlet was great, although no remastering done on both they were both fine like when first saw them on early 60's tv with my mom. All in all great bargain for the price.
