Tagline: A man-hungry wife plots to murder her husband.... Based on a novel by Emile Zola.... The suspicions of former railroader Carl Buckley (Broderick Crawford) are confirmed when he beats his seductive, young wife Vicki (Gloria Grahame) into admitting that the time she passed with a railroad official was not entirely about his recent dismissal. Carl forces Vicki to set up a meeting on a train, and knifes his rival. Railroad engineer Jeff Warren (Glenn Ford) sees Vicki emerge from the murder compartment but, because of mutual attractions, refrains from testifying. Vicki uses her blandishments on Jeff in an effort to have him kill Carl; when Jeff refuses, she flees. Carl follows and strangles the girl. Freed of his infatuation for Vicki, Jeff is able to resume his romance with the pretty daughter of his co-worker (Edgar Buchanan).

ONE OF FRITZ LANG'S BEST

most movie critics dismiss HUMAN DESIRE as a lesser effort from fritz lang, inferior to THE BIG HEAT...I disagree mainly because the interaction between gloria graham and glenn ford here is more intense and permeating...instead of a gangster plot with lee marvin, you have real adult situations triangled with broderick crawford as the heavy green eyed monster...gloria grahame like Lady Macbeth methodically draws you in so that you can't help but want to see HUMAN DESIRE many times, unlike THE BIG HEAT, whose two severely shocking scenes lose their edge after awhile....this full screen goodtimes vhs is recorded in LP mode without subtitles...it's about all there is available unless you happened to tape it from TCM in a widescreen format...as one of fritz lang's best, HUMAN DESIRE deserves a dvd release..
