A kind of 'Lost weekend' of the gaming tables, the film shows Barbara as a clean, warm,intelligent human being,happily married(to Preston)  who is overtaken by a thirst for gambling that lands her in the gutter. Stanwyck runs the gamut, from warmth and humor to hysterics and despair.

Barbara Stanwyck, James Mason
In this  drama, Stanwyck is the mistreated wife of unfaithful husband Mason. A comfortable Van Heflin helps her through this and offers her the devotion Mason has not.
Barbara's work is subtle and fine and the character she plays is gentle and quiet, but torn up inside.
Filmed in 1949 but released in 1950,  is an exercise in murder and suspense. In trouble again, Stanwyck plays a woman accused of murder whom Assistant D.A. Corey falls for and has acquitted (by becoming her prosecutor and losing the case) The surprise is that she is guilty and has been two-timing him.
Stanwyck play two people: a dame with a shady past and one who reforms when she develops an attachment for Corey. Most of the tim the audience believes(like Corey) she's on the level. But Barbara livens this up with a few glimpses of what lies behind it, with her feline catlike grace and smouldering intensity.
