The Strange Love of Martha Ivers (1946) 9of11

In 1928, young heiress Martha Ivers fails to run off with friend Sam Masterson, and is involved in fatal events. Years later, Sam returns to find Martha the power behind Iverstown and married to "good boy" Walter O'Neil, now district attorney. At first, Sam is more interested in displaced blonde Toni Marachek than in his boyhood friends; but they draw him into a convoluted web of plotting and cross-purposes

"In your room or here?"

BADUM-TING!!

I can't stop laughing at all the withering looks Martha and Toni keep giving each other. Can't believe they only have that one scene together! Great stuff.

@creatornat I thought so at first,But afterwards it occured to me that it was a way he took control;Something she wasn't used to reliquishing.

Why, why did he kiss her when she tried to hit him with a fire-laden log!!?? He gets a bit of a fail for that one.

Lizabeth Scott works it so well, she stands in perfect contrast to Barbara Stanwyck.

Lizabeth and Barbara were perfectly cast, and they toy and challenge eachother through the men and finally, directly. Once they meet, the ante is upped, and the battle is on full-tilt.
