Cowardly scholar, Montenegrin old demon and blood sucker. The irresistible temptation, the inescapable reputation. It is conceivable that in the golden age of Hollywood, the status of screenwriters is equal to that of directors. The murder scene was awesome.

9/10. Norma buys a high-end coat to win favor, zooms in and zooms out to capture Joe's emotional changes: disgusted to accepting advice from a salesman, his values are shaken; the grassroots circle of innocent people in a friend's apartment celebrating and self-deprecating, and the claustrophobic environment of Norma's costume in the hall Forming a spatial opposition, the cigarette holder/inspector burying the pet orangutan symbolizes morbid escape and spiritual control in life, and the descending diagonal of the spiral staircase is the resistance to Joe's return to freedom.

Betty Schaefer: I had ten years of dramatic lessons, diction, dancing. Then, the studio made a test. Well, they didn't like my nose - slanted, this way a little. So, I went to a doctor and had it fixed. They made more tests and they were crazy about my nose. Only, they didn't like my acting.
