Trivia
The UCLA Film and Television Archive has remastered Lágrimas tardias (1949) from a recently discovered original print. The restoration process took five years after the print was discovered in France, and involved piecing segments of another copy into the restored version to have a complete film. The restoration was funded by the Film Noir Foundation. The restored version was broadcast on 7/17/2015, on the Turner Classic Movies network in pristine condition. The restored version of the film was released in 2016 on Blu-ray in the United States and the United Kingdom. The film has developed a cult following in the years since its release.

Errores
Jane tells Alan that the $790 she has spent represents about one tenth of a percent of the money in the satchel. Since they thought they had $100,000 (later determined by Danny the blackmailer to be $60,000). One tenth of a percent of 100,000 would be $100, so she spent closer to eight tenths of a percent of what she thought they had. A tenth of a percent of $60,000 would be $60, and $790 would be slightly over 1.3 per cent of that amount. So, in any case, the screenwriter was bad at math.

Film Noir with a Female Loser in the Middle

My 6th Noir in a self-managed study of Noir.

The web of deceit weaved by this crazy blond is a marvel to behold. Her brazen disregard for common sense, and the way she controls people around her, make her quite hate-worthy, which would make the actress Lizabeth Scott pleased to know.

Kristine Miller stole my heart with her grace and femininity as the innocent in-law, trying to make sense of the mad house of characters dropping in and out of her brother's apartment.

The toxic, manipulative love/hate relationship portrayed by Dan Duryea and Lizabeth Scott radiated sparks of electricity. See if *you* can figure out where that thing is headed. Only one of them can get the upper hand in this caper.

As I watched the version on Archive.org, I found myself wondering, "How are they going to wrap this up with only a few minutes to go?" knowing the clock is running out only heightens the tension of this nifty Noir.

Why aren't more people suspicious around such toxic characters? Maybe we all dread looking behind that curtain. Classic tragedy speaks to this.

This is some excellent story-telling, and is highly recommended.
