FALLEN ANGEL (1945)

Almost a decade before Marlon Brando yelled "Stella!", Dana Andrews as con artist Eric Stanton says it quieter, but equally as intense, hearing of Linda Darnell as Stella's death while newly married to rich girl Alice Faye, who quit movies entirely because Darnell, even dead, stole the scenes away from the first-billed singer/starlet in her first, and last, dramatic role, Otto Preminger's FALLEN ANGEL.

Comments

MADISON AVENUE (1961)

The third of four movies starring Dana Andrews and Jeanne Crain is the only where Crain plays the sort of "other woman" on the sidelines wherein Dana's MADISON AVENUE mover/shaker is building-up the career of Eleanor Parker. The scenes between Andrews and Crain, though, are the longest and last throughout the entire story.

SEALED CARGO (1951)

Dana Andrews' uncredited brother Steve Forrest plays a Nazi soldier, without lines, about to get a knife in SEALED CARGO... so the brothers never actually share screen-time, but it's the first and only time they're in the same movie.

WHERE THE SIDEWALK ENDS (1950)

Dana Andrews in WHERE THE SIDEWALK ENDS, after killing future PETER GUNN Craig Stevens, standing in front of an awesome dog... or rather, dogs... picture... that in a nicer hotel they'd be jumping over something, or something.
