What's the use of being free? All that's left is you and me

Oh, hell: Peggy Cummins has died. I think it is time to watch Gun Crazy (1950). I've known of it by reputation for years, but I missed it last summer at the Brattle. I can get it through the library. It will fit with the women-in-noir theme anyway.

I'd say how sad, but she made it into her 90s at least! I recognised the name instantly, so I knew she'd been in something I've seen not too long ago, but it was Meet Mr Lucifer and she was kind of annoying in that, so I can't say much about her. But I suspect that was more the role and the film, rather than her. She did not have a gun in that, that's for sure! (And, to be fair, she was standing next to Barbara Murray.)

She is amazing in Gun Crazy. I'm also very fond of her role in Night of the Demon.
