Too Late for Tears (1949) ⭐️ Lizabeth Scott ⭐️ Dan Duryea ⭐️ Don DeFore | Crime, Drama, Film Noir |

By chance, a ruthless woman stumbles upon a suitcase full of $60,000 and is determined to keep it, even if it means murder.

The femme fatale is one of the iconic characters of classic noir-style police films (shadow photography, mysterious plots, tough detectives, destructive women in scripts full of crimes and twists). Jane Palmer (Lizabeth Scott) is not by far the most cited or famous, but it is undoubtedly the most cruel and sordid of the films produced in those golden years. “Too Late For Tears” was produced in 1949 by director Byron Haskin. In the plot, a couple (Arthur Kennedy and Lizabeth Scott) literally have a suitcase that fell into their car and find a jackpot for the time: 60,000 dollars. The honest husband wants to return the money, but Jane slowly shows him that she will not let the money slip out of his hands. Nothing is a barrier for her, no life matters, because the blonde doesn't have a heart, but a safe inside her chest. And she wants to fill it with dollars. And the evil bandit in the story (Dan Duryea) is a match for this femme fatale who must have inspired many soap opera villains. The phrase said by Duryea in the film sums it up: “You know what, tigress? Don't ever change. I don’t think I’d like you if you had a heart.” (https://www.imparcial.com.br/)
