El crimen de la semana

In The Glass Web, Kathleen Hughes stars as an ambitious actress willing to sleep her way to the top. She's very attractive and is clad to the nines in gowns by Bill Thomas, and she has that "Marilyn Monroe" cunning aspect which serves her purpose very well. Robert Blees and Leonard Lee's screenplay is quite good, with fun quips and interesting twists around every corner. It's no wonder the characters are all very smart, since the story revolves around a true-crime television program that pays attention to the slightest detail. Richard Denning is the producer, Edward G. Robinson is the casting and technical director, and Richard Forsythe is the writer. Each week, their program reenacts a murder and explains how it was done, the motivation, and how the killer got caught.

At first glance, The Glass Web might seem like just a typical thriller, but there are so many surprises throughout the plot - starting with the opening scene! I'd definitely recommend this movie, especially if you like your movies soapy and dramatic. I could make my review longer with more compliments, but I don't want to give a single thing away. It's so exciting when you watch it with absolutely no idea of what's going to happen next! I found myself talking to the television and trying to advise the characters - and since I've seen so many movies, it's a real tribute to The Glass Web that I was so engrossed.
