got a little more in on this film tonight.
The "marriage failure" scene has always been so depressing. Barbara holding the screaming baby, slapping Hank, then Hank hitting Barbara, all of this going on in their small, meager, apartment -- Barbara trying to go straight-she couldn't do it.
Susan could play desperation in such a believable way. Wow, you can really feel the stifled way in which she is living.

You can really get a view of Susan's great walk in this part of the film when she has left Bobby, her baby to taken care of by someone else, and she makes that long slinky, sexy ( and not even trying to be!) walk to the bus stop while the cops are observing her.

She's about to get arrested. Here comes that famous poster scene as she walks out of the warehouse clutching that little stuffed tiger. I can't imagine anyone else playing the role of Barbara Graham.
