Jack Arnold’s direction of a potentially overly-melodramatic plot manages to sidestep most of the problems, but it is the acting that is most memorable. The film’s beginning uses Elaine Stewart to enormous advantage. She may have had a short film career, but you could not take your eyes off her when she was on screen (THE BAD AND THE BEAUTIFUL, SKY FULL OF MOON, HAJJI BABA, etal). She had quite a bit of talent that never saw stardom, partly because of a dog attack that left her out of the biz for a while. GAIL RUSSELL is superb…totally wonderful… in a supporting role, and the scene in which she breaks down in the courtroom deserved a Nomination. And how splendidly she handles the line about drinking!! JACK CARSON is cagey and sneaky and superbly threatening. In the lead, JEFF CHANDLER, as a lawyer, is always convincing. Low-keyed, you can tell when his character is confronted with an insurmountable problem. JEANNE CRAIN has little to do as his wife, but she is always lovely to watch. Catch this underrated film. It’s worth searching for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGreat Surprise Ending\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text show-more__control\"\u003eJack Carson is great as the sociopath sheriff. Gail Russell also very good in her role. While this is one of Jeff Chandler’s better roles, I think that his lawyer summation near the end of the film could have been cut down some, since it isn’t nearly as profound as intended.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"FilmClassicsonDVD","offers":[{"title":"DOWNLOAD","offer_id":51498647486751,"sku":"tadre-2","price":10.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"DVD","offer_id":51498647519519,"sku":"tadre-1","price":12.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/0788\/5087\/files\/The-Tattered-Dress-rareandcollectibledvds-981.jpg?v=1767266888","url":"https:\/\/filmclassicsondvd.com\/products\/the-tattered-dress","provider":"FilmClassicsonDVD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
