This is a terrific movie no one has ever heard of. Like the book it is based on, The Red House was popular in its day but since 1947 it has fallen into obscurity. Dark and noirish, this melodrama sports an Oscar winning score and game performances, including huge, nearly operatic turns by the brilliant Edward G. Robinson and Judith Anderson as a tortured farmer with a horrible secret and his longsuffering sister. Featuring Lon McCallister - also popular in his day but widely forgotton - Julie London and Rory Calhoun.
This movie is very much of its time but if you appreciate old movies, over the top performances and classic melodrama, you'll want to check it out. More Info About This DVD Actor(s): Edward G.
