Deserves a remake in honor of Audrey Totter.

"Tension" (1949): The wicked Audrey Totter is married to nerdy storeowner Richard Basehart. Since she happens to be one of the biggest tramps of film noir, she of course, cheats. Rich isn't too happy about this, and creates a new alias so he can kill the lover without getting caught. But of course, a big plot jerk comes ... "Tension" is now one of my favorite film noirs. Nothing can compare to Audrey Totter, who gives probably my favorite femme fatale performance of all time. She says her lines with such snap, crackle, and pop that she makes it a role that only she can play to perfection. The director named this movie "Tension" for one reason is particular-- this is a heck of a suspenseful film! There's so many plot twists in store, and with that unpredictability, THAT'S what makes this film. 5 + Stars, and I mean that.

Forgetten film noir gem with Audrey Totter at her bitchiest and great performances from barry Sullivan and Richart Basehart - not to mention Cyd Charisse and a young William Conrad in a rotundo profoundo role as a slovenly detective.
