Holy shit, this is a sexy scene! I like how director Phil Karlson had these two play it at a slow-burn--it's pitch-perfect. - @Thursday, April 13, 2017 8:12 PM

What a great film! Wonderful actress, very underrated. Here's a little trivia, Ms. Keyes played one of Scarlett's younger sisters in Gone With the Wind. - @Thursday, January 21, 2016 8:32 PM

Evelyn was great, but sadly underrated. - @Wednesday, June 17, 2015 2:07 PM

She married 3 heavyweight artists....Charles Vidor, John Huston, and Artie Shaw. Which is an interesting track record!~ - @Friday, December 12, 2014 9:01 AM

I saw this film last night on TCM. Evelyn Keyes was a very underrated and versatile actress. She played sweet girls and villains with equal verve. I can't even begin to imagine what she was like in real life. Film historian Robert Osborne, who knew her, said that her alluring personality was never really captured on film. - @Saturday, January 15, 2011 6:10 PM
