A middle-aged college professor laments his stodgy life until he spends an evening with a beautiful woman who has a dangerous lover.
This is one of my favourite film noir classics. It starts beautifully simple, a mere chance encounter on the sidewalk, and gradually the story takes a downward spiral step by step into the abyss. Unfortunately, the studio forced a happy ending onto the plot, but that can hardly reverse the experience you just have made.
