When Strangers Marry (1944)
Director: William Castle
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
The Monogram B-picture that gave Mitchum his first starring role. Hunter's the innocent one, turning to former boyfriend Mitchum, when husband Jagger disappears after a couple of months of marriage. A trip to the cops reveals that the latter may not be quite the man she thought and thus the plot thickens. Future horror showman Castle keeps it simple, leaving the cast and the cracking dialogue to make the running. Mitchum shows promise.Author: TJ
