"Supergirl": The Bravery And Ferocity Of Dark Feminine Energy
"Be good. It doesn’t mean you can’t be tough. It doesn’t mean you always have to be nice. Just be good."
The Tattered Dress (1957)
After a wild night, wealthy Michael Reston's adulterous wife Charleen comes home with her dress in rags; murder results. Top New York defense lawyer J.G. Blane, whose own marriage exists in name only, arrives in Desert View, Nevada to find the townsfolk and politically powerful Sheriff Hoak distinctly hostile to the Restons. In due course, Blane discovers he's been "taken for a ride," and that quiet desert communities can be deadly.
