with a similar plot, was much better. For one, Barbara Stanwyck was HOT (note the little ankle bracelet and the brazen leg display, foreshadowing Ms. Sharon Stone by several decades), whereas Lana Turner was merely cheap; Fred McMurray and Edward G. Robinson were perfectly cast.
One reason the 1981 "Jack" version was strange? David Mamet adapted it...
Garfield, and I'm not much of a fan, was very good in the original.
