They Won't Believe Me (1947 Irving Pichel)

Yes, I didn't realise we'd seen this quite recently, but enjoyed it more second time around, particularly Susan Hayward in film-stealing role as gold-digging siren (who, ultimately, has a heart - just before that heart stops beating). Has a kick-snorter of an ending.

Robert Young (Sitting Pretty) is the incessantly cheating husband who tries to get away with murder, but in the end, doesn't have to. His long-suffering wife is Rita Johnson, the girl who he betrays is Jane Greer. The story is by Gordon McDonell and the screenplay Jonathan Latimer.

An RKO production. Photographed by Harry Wild, music Roy Webb, producer Joan Harrison.
