The Damned Don't Cry Movie Review 1950

Crawford is a small-town girl who leaves her family to climb the social ladder to the top of organized crime as a boss's moll by using her looks and guile. Melodrama, in the vein of Crawford's "Mildred Pierce," mixes with a noirish atmosphere to create an interesting crime drama/character study.
