I only rated it 4 stars because i hate henry fonda. like actually i have a deep hatred for him hes just so annoying i absolutely hate the way he talks and acts and it just makes me wanna crawl up inside a small hole where no one could see me and kill myself in the slowest way possible maybe by poison, or by a knife the important part is that i die in the slowest fucking way possible. i absolutely despise henry fonda.(idk if i could get banned or not for saying this but im jking pls dont ban me)

apparently otto preminger said in the 70s that he had no recollection of making this movie and if that isn’t a testament to how forgettable this is i don’t know what is. three stars is really too much but i’m feeling generous

Dana Andrews drinking, no, GLUGGING, from a bottle of milk on Joan Crawford’s doorstep after she (rightfully) slams the door in his face. What on earth was that all about???
