Synopsis

German director Max Ophuls made two film noirs in his short stay in Hollywood. Caught tells the story of a young model Leonora played by Barbara Bel Geddes (Vertigo) who marries millionaire Smith Ohlrig played by Robert Ryan. The marriage quickly goes south as Ohlrig plays mind games with his wife. Leonora leaves her husband after he refuses to divorce her. Leonora goes to work with Dr. Larry Quinada played by the always dapper James Mason (Bigger Than Life, Odd Man Out and other fantastic films). The plot thickens and so does Leonora's belly as she finds out she's pregnant with Ohlrig's child. Although Caught isn't as widely praised as Ophuls later films, it still packs a punch.
