TCM's Film Noir of the Week at Midnight ET Saturday Night-Sunday morning is Caged (1950). Eleanor Parker stars as a young woman implicated in a forty-dollar stickup pulled by her stupid husband. She enters prison as an innocent who has to become a hardened con in order to survive.
Agnes Moorhead plays a sympathetic Warden. The huge Hope Emerson is a vicious matron who delights in persecuting Parker. Betty Garde is the boss con serving time for murder, who occasionally bribes Emerson.
Up to that time, prison movies made you wonder, “Why are all these nice people in prison?” Caged is a corrective.
It repeats at 10 a.m. ET on Sunday, May 13.
N.S.: Three or four years ago, my chief of research and me saw The Snake Pit (1948), starring Olivia de Havilland, as a woman who has a nervous breakdown. de Havilland was marvelous, and was up for Best Actress.
Not long thereafter, we saw Caged, and I realized that it had ripped off the The Snake Pit’s story, and transplanted to to a women’s prison. Still, the acting was wonderful. As the protagonist, Eleanor Parker had to depict a transformation, which she pulled off with great subtlety. Agnes Moorhead plays a very sexy and kindhearted, but not foolishly so, warden. And then there’s Hope Emerson.
