Black Widow (1954)

Black Widow (1954)




Synopsis

Broadway producer Peter Denver (Van Heflin) takes in young actress Nanny Ordway (Peggy Ann Garner) while his wife (Gene Tierney) is out of town. When Nancy is found murdered in his penthouse apartment, the two prime suspects are Peter and the neglected husband (Reginald Gardiner) of temperamental Broadway star Ginger Rogers, who had also been dallying with the dead girl. Detective Bruce (George Raft) figures out the true identity of the killer, but the audience may be well ahead of him. Despite its resplendant color photography, Black Widow is a "film noir" at heart.

  • Blunt Escapes Black Widow’s Web

    Rumor has it Emily Blunt won’t be starring in Iron Man 2 after all. The Playlist reports that director Jon Favreau was cornered by E! at an Oscar after party and admitted that the British beauty is out as the Black Widow. It turns out that Fox execs exercised their option on Blunt, and she will now be sticking with Guilliver’s Travels instead. Favreau won’t be left empty handed though, because both Scarlett Johansson and Eliza Dushku have both shown interest.
