An unhappy wife uses her powers of manipulation to draw an infatuated man into an ill-fated jewellery heist. In 1956 Paramount studios expended a great deal of money on the The Scarlet Hour and enlisted the services of top-flight director Michael Curtiz. The result is an outstanding and rarely seen Film Noir. (Via Vision Entertainment)
