LIGHTNING STRIKES TWICE (1951) ¢ ¢ ¢
D: King Vidor
Richard Todd, Ruth Roman, Mercedes McCambridge,
Zachary Scott, Rhys Williams, Darryl Hickman
Nourish mystery melodrama about a guy who's convicted and then acquitted of killing his wife, and a woman who falls for him while trying to figure out whether or not he actually done it. Movie-stealing performance by Mercedes McCambridge as a girl who looks right at home in jeans and a flannel shirt and can spin a yarn without missing a beat while rolling and lighting a cigarette one-handed.
