TCM's Film Noir of the Week Saturday Night-Sunday Morning at Midnight and 10 a.m. ET is John Farrow's Where Danger Lives (1950) with Robert Mitchum, Faith Domergue, Claud Rains, Maureen O'Sullivan.
Film Noir Guide: "Mitchum plays a hospital doctor who treats attempted suicide victim Domergue and, of course, falls in love with her, dumping his girlfriend (O'Sullivan). When he drunkenly barges into Domergue's mansion to confront her father, who he believes wants to break up the relationship, he discovers that the 'father' is really her elderly husband (Rains)."
"A fight ensues and Mitchum gets hit over the head with a fireplace poker before knocking the older man to the floor. After dousing himself with cold water, he finds that Rains is dead. Not thinking straight because of a concussion, he allows Domergue to talk him into taking a powder with her to Mexico. Their nightmare car trip ends tragically at the Mexican border after Mitchum discovers that Domergue is a pretty sick dame."
"Mitchum's performance saves the film, which is nearly ientical to his Angel Face. The part must have been a natural for the sleepy-eyed, ;aid-back Mitchum because for more than half the film he walks around in a semi-comatose condition as a result of the concussion. Domergue, while quite a looker, isn't persuasive as the psychotic femme fatale."
David In TN: Before Noir Alley at 10 p.m. Saturday Night, TCM shows Don Siegel's Coogan's Bluff (1968) with Clint Eastwood as an Arizona lawman in Manhattan to extradite a killer (Don Stroud). Susan Clark provides a love interest and Lee J. Cobb plays a NYPD detective.
