Pitfall [VHS]
$9.98
Now here is a serious noir film! The cast features Dick Powell, Jane Wyatt, Raymond Burr and Lizabeth Scott. Powell is an L.A. insurance man, slowly becoming bored with his predictable suburban lifestyle. His wife is Jane Wyatt, the perfect 40s/50s homemaker. Trouble brews when Powell hires a smarmy P.I. (Burr) to investigate a theft of property. This is long before his role of Perry Mason. Burr gets the perpetrator (Byron Barr) arrested. Powell visits Barr s girlfriend to wrap things up and reclaim the remaining goods. But this is no ordinary lady! This is the classic noir good girl/bad girl-Lizabeth Scott. The two have the requisite noir affair, even though Barr is her supposed boyfriend! The plot thickener is that P.I. Burr also is interested in Scott, leaving the 3 male leads pining for the same girl! The by now obvious villain, Burr, visits boyfriend Barr in the slammer, teasing him with tales of Powell and Scott. Matters intensify more when Burr pays Barr's bail and gets him drunk enough to try to kill Powell. Good girl Scott phones Powell to warn him. In the deadly showdown, Powell kills the boyfriend. LAPD presses no charges. This reviewer won t reveal the resolution of The Pitfall but at this point Burr and Scott are still standing. Most viewers may side with Scott but fate does not exactly smile on either. There is one more dead body and one more live one on the way to San Quentin. The film fades out after Powell has confessed all to the wife. She stands by him in the true 40s/50s tradition but allows that things will never be the same again. One doesn t know who to feel sorriest for, the dead characters, the one on the way to the Big House or Powell-who will have to face his wife every morning for the rest of his life while still trapped in his hum drum middle class life. While working at an insurance company, no less! A staple of noir films is the essentially good but basically weak human caught in a maelstrom set in place by others more devious than (s)he. That is an apt capsule description of Pitfall and it has an excellent film wrapped around it. It may be short of those murky night shots, dark streets and strange camera angles of other noir classics. Pitfall remains a wonderful 40s/50s showcase, with a large dab of middle class malaise tossed in- all in a run time of 86 minutes! Highly recommended!
