Chester Morris BLIND ALLEY Ann Dvorak VHS Ann Doran

Chilling psychological drama in the film-noir tradition reminiscent of the “The Desperate Hours.” CHESTER MORRIS is an escaped killer who hides out in the home of noted psychologist RALPH BELLAMY. While Chester’s gang holds Bellamy’s family and servants hostage, the pipe-smoking mental doctor calmly tries to discover the reasons for Wilson's murderous proclivities. As gun moll ANN DVORAK covers Bellamy, Morris willingly allows the doctor to psychoanalyze him, using hypnosis to trace the killer's childhood. Blind Alley works as a "film noir" complete with surrealistic dream sequences. A taut story and moody cinematography by Lucien Ballard, with sharp direction from Charles Vidor, and superlative acting by Morris and Bellamy, earn this film noir entry a top spot in the genre. The film was remade scene-for-scene in 1949 as The Dark Past, with William Holden as the killer and Lee J. Cobb as the unflappable head shrinker. This 1939 suspenser also stars JOAN PERRY, MELVILLE COOPER, MILBURN STONE and more.<p>No art with this rarity from a large private film collection. Comes in a black collector’s slipcase.
