Embaucadora asesina.

Otro excelente thriller dirigido por John Farrow (El reloj asesino, Mil ojos tiene la noche), esta vez centrado en la clásica trama de mujer fatal incitando a un hombre al asesinato. Margo es una joven y atractiva mujer, que se casa con un hombre mayor que ella por el dinero. Decidida a quedarse con toda la fortuna, seduce a un médico para que mate a su marido. Una vez cometido el delito, ambos amantes deciden escapar hacia México.

En realidad, el productor de la cinta, el magnate Howard Hughes, parece ser que lo único que quería era proporcionar un vehículo de promoción a su nueva adquisición: la rubia Faith Domergue, que había sido protegida (por decir un eufemismo) del millonario desde que tenía 15 años. El clima durante el rodaje fue bastante cordial entre el actor principal, Robert Mitchum, y John Farrow, gracias a la desmedida afición al alcohol de ambos (DeCine21).

AMG Synopsis: Faith Domergue, the latest of Howard Hughes' protegees, made her film debut in 1950's Where Danger Lives. Domergue plays Margo Lannington the wife of Frederick Lannington (Claude Rains), an elderly millionaire possessed of a sadistic streak. Robert Mitchum co-stars as Jeff Cameron, a poor soul who falls in love with Margo without knowing that she's married. During a violent confrontation with the jealous Frederick, Cameron knocks the older man out and stumbles out of the room. Upon his return, he discovers that Frederick is dead. Margo had smothered her husband during Cameron's absence, but she insists that Cameron is the killer. The desperate lovers flee to Mexico, where Cameron at long last discovers that his travelling companion is more than a little unhinged. Masterfully directed by John Farrow, Where Danger Lives might have been one of the classic "film noirs," were it not for the acting deficiencies of Faith Domergue, who flounders in a role that Jane Greer could have played blindfolded.

AMG Review: Where Danger Lives is a sometimes fascinating, sometimes annoying film noir that is well worth seeing, especially for devotees of this genre. Although it is uneven, when it works, Danger is totally captivating. Several things keep Danger from being the total success that it should have been. Chief among these is the casting of Howard Hughes' "discovery" Faith Domergue in the absolutely crucial role of the deranged femme fatale. The part calls for a woman with the kind of looks that grab a man by the eyeballs and won't let him go, and this Domergue has. But it also calls for an actress, someone who can play complicated scenes and who knows that there is nuance in everything, even scenes of intense drama, and here the actress is sorely lacking. The other flaws in the film come in Charles Bennett's screenplay, which stretches credibility in several places, brings in some attempted lightness at inappropriate times and doesn't make Robert Mitchum's character's action believable enough. However, Bennett balances this with some searingly intense sequences, some great explorations of noir themes and a journey into hell that is quite effective. Credit John Farrow's muscular, commanding direction with playing down the flaws and emphasizing the assets, especially in terms of the impending doom that grows stronger as the film goes along. He's aided by Nick Musuraca's explosively moody cinematography, which is invaluable. Mitchum is cast againt stype, but he plays the part extremely well, and Claude Rains in a small role is magnificent.
