Crime of Passion Barbara Stanwyck demotes herself from big-time columnist to petty housewife, and goes berserk scheming on behalf of her honest but thick detective hubby Sterling Hayden. An exceptionally interesting late-period noir from Gerd Oswald - bizarre socio-sexual politics are the star in Jo Eisinger's screenplay.   11/22/03 Posted by DVD Savant at November 23, 2003 12:04 AM
