The Woman in the Window

The Woman in the Window is a 1944 American film noir directed by Fritz Lang and starring Edward G. Robinson, Joan Bennett, Raymond Massey, and Dan Duryea. It tells the story of a psychology professor who meets and becomes enamored with a young femme fatale. Based on J. H. Wallis' novel Once Off Guard, the story features two surprise twists at the end. Screenwriter Nunnally Johnson, having written the script for The Grapes of Wrath, was invited by International Pictures to a picture deal, and The Woman in the Window was chosen as its premiere project. According to some sources, Fritz Lang substituted the film's dream ending in place of the originally scripted suicide ending, to conform with the moralistic Production Code of the time. However, Fritz Lang himself claimed it was his idea when asked directly in an interview. The term "film noir" originated as a genre description, in part, because of The Woman in the Window.
