Yvette Vickers is skanky and cheap. Glamazon Allison Hayes is of the gods! William Hudson's character was apparently blind and retarded in addition to being a fool.

Oh, b.g., I think you're being rather harsh about Yvette. Sure, Honey's a cheap tart, but she is sexy in a slutty sort of way, and maybe "Handsome Harry" had had enough of his alcoholic wife (even if he may have driven her to it: the evidence is mixed) that someone of a different, shall we say, background had some appeal to him. You know what men are. (Or women: what does Nancy see in her no-good, gold-digging, unfaithful husband?) Personally, I think the three of them were fools.

Well gentlemen it just goes to show ya that no matter how hot (or rich for that matter!) a woman is there's at least one guy out there who's sick & tired of doin her!! :D

[–] hobnob53 14 years ago

Yes, Harry had his work cut out for him.

Or was it cut off?

Actually, as a guy, I could understand why Harry was attracted to both of them!

Harry needed some strange! Little did he know his wife would be stranger!

Yvette Vickers was cute and she probably knew things !!!! That's why Harry liked her. Allison Hayes was a gorgeous woman, but slighty nutty in this film. By the way, Yvette Vickers died recently. Watching it right now on TCM.

Watching Yvette right now on TCM in 50 Foot Woman. She had incredible bedroom eyes. Very sultry, sexy woman. RIP Yvette, you are not forgotten.

Seriously, both women were beautiful.

No doubt. Sometimes it's those skanky girls that make you feel alive again.

I agree with you, Allison Hayes is just so darn sexy to me. Yvette seems too juvenile for my taste and doesn't turn my crank, but to each his own..... and as Alfred Hitchcock reminded us: "It's only a movie".....so liberties with logic in both story line and character motivation can and are taken.

Alison may have been a slightly loony lush, but she was gorgeous and rich too. Any questions?

[–] namaGemo 10 years ago

Yeah, have you ever dated an alcoholic? You don't want to be with them for very long, and anything seems world better.

[–] lorenzb-2 10 years ago

Well, yeah. In fact all the women I've ever known have been complete nut jobs and or losers. That's why I'm MGTOW now. Try to find one that isn't screwed up. And good luck with that.

I never saw that acronym, but I'd never say I don't agree with what you just mentioned about them all being crazy. I'd say I've had a 60% ratio of some form of substance abuse, 80% bi polar or emotional issues, and of a possible decent 20%, those are the ones who don't enjoy sex and can be mega b1tches.

[–] DracTarashV 10 years ago

Ditto.

When I first saw Yvette's character, I said... are you serious? Yes, I understand that Allison's character had her issues and all, but still... she was an absolute beauty - and yet, this guy decides to cheat on her with a broad who isn't so, you know... va-va-voom. I mean, really? I guess everyone has their reasons then...

Anyway, I think the only reason Hudon's character even got a bombshell like Allison's character in the first place, was probably because she was desperate.

Hey there, Johnny Boy, I hope you fry!

Wow. Seems like I'm the only guy around here who thought Yvette Vickers was gorgeous and sexy and Allison Hayes looked like Elizabeth Taylor in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf.
