Another 1953 movie of interest with Jean Peters is Niagara, although it’s Marilyn Monroe who gets top billing.
Marilyn is certainly given a very memorable introduction.
But Blonde Bombshells, even Marilyn, have never been my type. For me, it’s Jean who’s the hook in Niagara.
It’s unfortunate the movie was made in 1953. It deserved to be filmed in a widescreen format, and a year later it would have been. The casting of Casey Adams (real name Max Showalter) as Jean’s husband is curious, because he was rather apparently gay.
