CAUSE FOR ALARM! (1951) - June 15, 2008
About a housewife whose paranoid husband accuses her of trying to murder him and then promptly dies, leaving her to frantically try to recover the letter to the DA that he just mailed. It's a simple premise, but it's well executed and briskly paced, running at a snappy 74 minutes. The film was well directed, and Loretta Young was quite good in the main role. This film is a great example of how to take something fairly simple and make it far better than you'd expect. ***
