The Postman Always Rings Twice

Double Feature with THE LADY FROM SHANGHAI

Buy Tickets Brattle Passes OK

(1946) dir Tay Garnett w/Lana Turner, John Garfield, Cecil Kellaway, Hume Cronin [113 min]

Lana Turner is smoldering as a prototypical femme fatale in this tale of desire and murder. John Garfield plays Frank Chambers, a drifter who is taken in by the owner of a roadside diner. Despite this kindness, Frank’s scruples are overwhelmed by lust for his benefactor’s scheming wife (Turner) and the two plan to do in the boss and reap the rewards.
