Shockproof
First Douglas Sirk and it was kind of mediocre. Don’t get me wrong the direction and mise en scene is incredibly well done but the story here is just too far-fetched to make me suspend the reality and plausibility of this story. The acting is also very much of its time, which doesn’t help to elevate this soapy-crime-drama at all.I feel like this plot in theory could’ve actually worked but limitations of the cinema at the time maybe held it back from achieving what could’ve been an actually good movie.
