Eager Beaver

No, this is not another Starlet Showcase

ultra-minimalist film review. It's just a pile

of pictures. ("What's the difference?" you ask.)

It's a fun movie, okay? It's fun but not because

of anything Robert Taylor does. It's fun because

Lana's in it, sure. But it's actually actor Van

Heflin who makes Johnny Eager so much fun.



Van Heflin plays a drunk, and he gets all the best lines.

And he delivers those great lines beautifully.

And Lana Turner never looked better.

So there.
