Excellent movie once you start watching you won't be able to stop. Janis Carter started out looking for a career in Opera and was discovered for film - This low budget film is a real gem. Janis real last name was Dremann but people had trouble pronouncing it so she changed it to her grandmother's maiden name Carter
Note to self-- when your brakes fail, use the engine brake- i.e., put it in low gear, (standard AND automatic) even if it rips the transmission out. It won't come to a stop but it will slow it right down. Then turn the engine off -- might keep you from getting killed.
Glenn Ford was a short man. He was only 5’6”. The thing I remember about Ford is that he always wore a good looking well shaped hat in western movies. Great actor.
Growing up, I only saw Glenn Ford as an older man. Never realized how absolutely beautiful he was as a young man. No wonder my MIL named my husband after him.
Great movie! Thank you so much for uploaded! movies like this one or "White heat""The lost weekend" etc show me clearly that the cinema was an art for these days.
A true gemstone! I liked the getting-up scene from 20:07 onward much. And I as a German understand now what the word "framed" means. In this context it means "trapped" or "caught in an evilly planned trap". Before I understood, I had been wondering all the time what in the world a framed person had to do with a picture frame? ;-))
Gotta LOVE old movies. What a cool end "You keep it!" throws away the smoke he just lit and walks the other way putting past behind. Man.. sometimes people who have no luck just never stumble upon one. How "Dramatique!" 😄👌🏻
I really enjoyed the movie. The woman who played the lead was very beautiful I wish you would have been able to act a little better. Glenn Ford really shined of course. Thank you for displaying it
Remember this. The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. One cannot love God and mammon. The Mike Lambert character rejected mammon. Something for me to learn..
Framed should have been called Misguided ? Glen Ford in another great role, he was an exceptional actor from Gilda to The Big Heat with Lee Marvin, Glen Ford a lot better than Harrison for sure.
Really good sleeper movie!!! Does anybody have any method to find these really good movies? One thing that works for me is to look at the ID MD rating, this one is 7.5 or something. Any other really good movies? New York confidential, 1950
Pretty sad that the woman betrayed herself for love of a man, who then betrayed her. Hollywood 1940s portrayed women as emotional slaves to the man they loved. Of course, she was evil, but I would prefer she brought about her undoing, because she was downright evil - not because she fell for the wrong guy.
I don't want to include any spoilers since there aren't any in the comments, so I will speak cryptically. For me the movie was spoiled by the final switch by Paula at the climax, which was simply too unbelievable for me, as nothing in the film to that point would make that kind of switch sensible. Even the desire of a scriptwriter for a great twist must be justified by everything that happened beforehand. As for the acting, Glenn Ford is as great and cool as always, but Janis Carter did a pretty lousy acting job in my book.
1.13.35 : I would not be surprised to find a bottle of ketchup in an american kitchen, but a bottle of poison !! Who could reasonably believe such a thing !!??
@ 40:18 Paula [Janis Carter] kinda reminds me of Mrs. Howell on Gilligan's Island... Pretty but Wicked - Enticing but Coy! I can't think of a word that describes her character... Can You? 🤔
Money and food in these movies always bothers me. What happened to his gold piece? In the movie about the land out in Arizona every time they get some food something happens and they don'y get to eat it.
Sorry to see Karen Morley in a 5 minute support bit. She was blacklisted and that sank her Hollywood career. Isn't there a cheap blonde in every dumpy bar in town?
I read about that when watching “Our Daily Bread.” HUAC did its damndest to ruin careers. Even tried to blacklist E. G. Robinson and Lucille Ball. What a terrible time in history.
Repetido mil veces, boicotean los frenos o se estropean y van en una carretera con fuerte pendientes. En la autoescuela no les enseñaron que existe el freno de mano y que cualquier coche, más un camión, puede reducir su velocidad cambiando a una marcha inferior ? Por qué los guionistas se empeñan en creernos idiotas ?
Jeff needs $30,000 to work the mine. The guard tells Ford he'll get a big reward for turning the Paula in. Ford say You Keep It and walks away. What a loser!!!
