Fallen Angel
Fallen Angel
An unemployed drifter, Eric Stanton wanders into a small California town and begins hanging around the local diner. While Eric falls for the lovely waitress Stella, he also begins romancing a quiet and well-to-do woman named June Mills. Since Stella isn't interested in Eric unless he has money, the lovelorn guy comes up with a scheme to win her over, and it involves June. Before long, murder works its way into this passionate love triangle.

Dana Andrews’ character is too much a sucker, and gets too “Woe is me,” to be a great film-noir hero (though Andrews is always fun to watch). But Alice Faye’s acting is superb, and Linda Darnell’s character is so rotten-but-fascinating, that this film supports multiple viewings.
