The post Frank Lloyd – Blood on the Sun (1945) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

The last installment of Lang’s “social trilogy,” You and Me (preceded by Fury and You Only Live Once) was an ambitious experiment but ultimately a box-office failure. A studied attempt to craft a socially conscious satire in the tradition of Brecht’s didactic plays, the film—produced by Lang himself for Paramount—presents the story of a progressive department-store owner who employs ex-convicts, some of whom have not quite reformed. Although Lang’s directorial sleight of hand is visible everywhere, the film slips between the registers of drama and comedy in ways that may have perplexed contemporary audiences.

David Phelps : In You and Me, as always in Lang, the madness of social outcasts is only the product of the madness of society itself. This time, however, it’s the madness of a gangster musical romance, in which the glitz of department store promotions will be counterpointed by an oracle of prisoners rattling themselves into orgiastic chants of “Stick to the Mob!”; by a Brechtian finale designed to mock any audience that’s come in for easy answers, Sylvia Sidney’s math lesson that crime doesn’t pay has shown both worlds contaminated by the other, even while the cold rationality of her business logic marks the end of mom-and-pop racketeering. The modern battle between carnival and lent—cold-hearted infrastructure against hot-blooded romance—could describe Lang’s style in a modernist nutshell. Lang’s basic thesis, that the only real difference between capitalism and gangsterism is that one works as an impersonal force of law imposed through the threats of facts and figures, while the other is extemporized by the rhythms of the mob and animated by collective instinct, works as a kind of comic chronicle of the whole 20th century: the story of gangsters realizing, to their dismay, that they’ve been replaced by kid-friendly corporations.

A man who is the pillar of his community has a secret – he has a compulsion to make obscene telephone calls.

THE SECRET NIGHT CALLER (1975).
Made-for-TV movies provided the Big Three networks with some of their highest Neilsen ratings in the 1970’s, and execs were always searching for provocative subject matter. Rape. Homosexuality. Prostitution. Or, in this gritty 73-minute outing, obscene phone calls. And who better to personify this deviant hobby than Mr. Brady himself, Robert Reed! (Hmmm, an all-American family man hiding an unseemly sexual secret? Gosh, what could’ve possibly attracted Reed to this role?) Backed up by a roster of recognizable co-stars, this portrait of an average, middle-aged guy who’s despondent about his life and indulges in kinky fantasies is far less campy than it might sound… Reed stars as husband, father and IRS tax agent Fred Durant, who looks like just another boring suburbanite but is actually plagued by “disgusting thoughts.” Driving to work, he daydreams about ravishing a hot chick in a passing convertible and in the evening, gets his kicks by anonymously phoning women and unleashing his perverse inner demons. ’60s/’70s sitcom-staple Arlene Golonka co-stars as Charlotte, who works in Fred’s office and gets so freaked out by his filthy late-night calls (which we never actually hear, this being network-TV) that she winds up hospitalized after a car accident. Other cast members include two-time Emmy winner Hope Lange as Fred’s sexually-cold wife and Sylvia Sidney as his overbearing mother. Although Fred is seen confessing his sordid desires to a psychiatrist (Michael Constantine) and the script preaches against these tawdry antics, the filmmakers also happily pander to lascivious male viewers, including Fred’s cute teenage daughter (Robin Mattson, CANDY STRIPE NURSES) showing off her skimpy new bikini and a strip club visit that leads to one of the dancers (Elaine Giftos, THE STUDENT NURSES) attempting blackmail. The finale is a mess of bad decisions and violence, as Fred’s actions finally kick him in the ass, but also leaves open a shot at redemption. Tightly directed by Jerry Jameson (AIRPORT ’77), with cinematography by Matthew F. Leonetti (who later shot such iconic ’80s films as FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH, POLTERGEIST and COMMANDO), the script’s psychology is all too simplistic. You see, after being emasculated by his pushy wife and mother, Fred empowers himself with obscene phone calls. Yep, it’s nonsense, but Reed truly gives it his all. For a while, you almost begin to sympathize with this disturbed schmuck, particularly when Fred loses it in the final act — drunkenly babbling about life’s regrets and his sexless marriage, then exploding with rage. Damn, I didn’t think Reed had it in him! Also look for typically-repugnant Thayer David as a tax client willing to pay for a favor, long-haired Danny Goldman (YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN) as a suspect and burly Pepper Martin as a bouncer.

Margaret Wyndham Chase wants to run for governor and approaches Eddie Ace, local political kingmaker/fringe gangster, to get his support. Ace’s belief is that “beautiful women and politics do not mix” and he declines to help. She decides to play the game rough-and-tough without him, but he shows he is even rougher-and-tougher, and she gives up and withdraws from the race. But Ace has fallen in love with her at about the 45-minute mark and, with his new-found ardor for clean politics, he makes some (unclean) manipulations behind the scenes, and she is picked to run on an independent good-government ticket.
