In a Lonely Place

Stone, and Inside Daisy Clover.

The script was written by Andrew Solt, who found great success as a screenwriter in the 40s with titles such as Joan of Arc, Whirlpool, In a Lonely Place, and Thunder on the Hill.

It was also a reunion between him and Joan, who had collaborated briefly on the 1942 comedy They All Kissed the Bride.

And once again, it was a reunion with Lange and O'Brien.

And then the only other person I wanted to mention was, uh, Burnett Guffey, and he was a second unit camera operator, and he went on to have a pretty strong career as a DP.

He shot Bonnie and Clyde, uh, In a Lonely Place, In the Reckless Moment also, a- and some other good stuff.

Um, but yeah, those are kinda the, the main kinda cast.

The, the main crew I wanted to go over.

... and Judy Holliday.

In a Lonely Place, which is another Humphrey Bogart, but it is, it's dark.

He and, you know the woman that plays Violet in It's a Wonderful Life? Yeah.

She's the lead, uh, opposite Humphrey Bogart.

Maybe that's the case with Humphrey Bogart.

When you think of Bogart, you think of Treasure of Sierra Madre and, of course, Casablanca and Maltese Falcon and even In a Lonely Place.

He has so many opportunities.

iconic movies and just phenomenal stuff that he's in that maybe the African Queen's not the first one he'd think of, but it could still be a great performance.

I always call her the what-she-got-that-I-don't-got girl because she always plays kind of a second lead who gets replaced by a flashy blonde who doesn't have a Brooklyn accent, and she's always wonderful.

In a Lonely Place, probably her best movie.

Yeah, no, she was very lovely in this, I thought.

And yeah, it was a great one.

Gloria did a couple of pictures with the studio before moving over to RKO, where she became known for a number of serious, intense roles that would become her general calling card.

Film noir became Gloria's thriving ground, and it wasn't long before she was starring beside legends like Humphrey Bogart in pictures like In a Lonely Place.

Gloria had a solid career and was working steadily, which isn't something a lot of actresses of this time can say, but her personal life was, uh, what you would probably call a mess.

Behind the scenes, Gloria was famously obsessed with her appearance and would hyper-focus on her imperfections.

Anyway, it was like a-

In a Lonely Place?

Uh, no.

That's my favorite one.
