Richard Vollin 13th Oct 2023		Review From my Amazon.com review on April 9, 2019 Spoiler Alert - Forget all the blather about Veronica Lake, I'll tell you who steals this film - hands down...supporting actress Doris Dowling as Alan Ladd's two-timing, slutty wife Helen Morrison. Her scenes are all too brief, but she is unforgettable. Quite drunk, dressed in a slinky, shimmering cocktail dress along with a smug attitude, she spills her guts out to her husband concerning the death of their son - Helen: "I could tell you something about Dickie that would hurt you plenty". Johnny: "What about Dickie"? Helen: "It could happen to anybody. I'd been to a party. I had to take Dickie with me, I had a few drinks". Johnny: "Ah - stop the tears". Helen: "Alright hero, I was drunk. I was in a car smash, Dickie was killed. I wrote you he had died of diphtheria because I was afraid to tell you the truth. Well - how do you like it?" Helen starts to drunkenly laugh. Johnny enters the bedroom and removes his automatic from his suitcase, then a physical confrontation ensues...while astride a stool with her legs in a provocative pose, Johnny pull his gun and aims it at her (see attached images); Johnny: "That's what I ought to do, but you're not worth it". Now, I ask you, what scene in the film did Veronica Lake have that tops this? ✔︎ Helpful Review?
