The terrific creative trio of director Raoul Walsh (Pursued), producer Buddy Adler (Anastasia), and screenwriter Sydney Boehm (The Big Heat) brings us this 1956 adaptation of William Bradford Huie’s racy novel, the 1956 drama The Revolt of Mamie Stover.
Jane Russell (The Outlaw) stars as the title character, a shady lady working in a Honolulu “dance hall” while amassing a real estate fortune and conducting a romance with a disapproving but turned-on writer (Richard Egan).
The film is highlighted by a superb Hugo Friedhofer (The Young Lions) score, available here as an isolated track. The disc also contains an original theatrical trailer.
