Joseph Losey\u2019s creepy noir stars Evelyn Keyes as an unhappy wife who spends every night alone, a captive audience to her husband\u2019s voice on the radio. Losey\u2019s picture blends a thoughtful social critique, which anticipates \u2018the problem that has no name\u2019, as well as men who chase material wealth, and the pernicious way the line between entertainment and advertisement is blurred by the media. I close the episode with two chapters from Scarlet O\u2019Hara\u2019s Younger Sister, the juicy bestseller from Evelyn Keyes, where she recalls the time when her boss Harry Cohn, head of Columbia Studio, vowed to make her a star.
