In a Lonely Place
1950, NR, 94 min. Directed by Nicholas Ray. Starring Humphrey Bogart, Gloria Grahame.
REVIEWED By Louis Black, Fri., Dec. 30, 2005
A romantic, dark, and surprisingly adult drama featuring Bogart in one of his best performances as a bitter screenwriter who drinks and fights more than he works. Then he falls for Grahame. "I was born when she kissed me. I died when she left me. I lived a few weeks while she loved me." Grahame is vivid, evidently off screen as well, marrying director Nicholas Ray before leaving him for his son.
