The Crowded Day

This British movie from the 1950's concerns the life of female employees at a department store. The only story I cared about was the one concerning the pregnant girl with the psychotic mother in law. I feel there hasn't been enough movies about women working with other women in the workplace. My favorite of that subject so far is Les Bonnes Femmes.

The Prowler

I've been getting into director Joseph Losey's movies lately. This was a great movie. It concerns a psychotic cop played excellently by Van Heflin. While searching for a prowler he becomes acquainted with the lonely Evelyn Keyes whose husband is a late night radio host. The two embarked on an affair. Heflin gets away with murder when he claims the shot on her husband was accidental. She marries him. But when she becomes pregnant their affair will become all too obvious to the public. He comes up with a scheme the problem is she reads into his past actions. I've already been impressed with Heflin before but Evelyn Keyes was pretty good too. 3.5/5
