Human Desire - Fritz Lang (1954)

This is one of the many film noirs that Lang made along the forties and fifties. In the main roles a not so expressive Glenn Ford and a sensual Gloria Grahame. The story comes from a Zola's novel. The plot is settled in the midwest in a railway environment. Good rythm and engaging train images "chugging down the track" while the engineer at charge watched the scenery and smoked happily .
