SMOKE SIGNAL (1954)

Director Jerry Hopper's Western adventure SMOKE SIGNAL, finally streaming in hi-definition, starring Dana Andrews as an Indian-friendly trapper helping an American troop escape angry Indians by way of white-water-rafting... Ironically, the same year, Dana's former directorial collaborator Otto Preminger had another white-water-western in theaters, the more suitably titled RIVER OF NO RETURN... Shown here are William Talman and Rex Reason.

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.
