Summary
Loretta Young (The Stranger, the Farmer's Daughter) and Jeff Chandler (Red Ball Express, Man in the Shadow) star in the noir romans Because of You. A blonde bombshell Christine Carroll (Young) finds out too late that her fiancé Mike Monroe (Alex Nicol, The Sleeping City) is a gangster - and she's his unwitting accessory. Emerging from prison with dark hair and an interest in nursing, she becomes a nurse's aid in a war hospital and soon marries a battle-fatigued patient, Steve Kimberly (Chandler). The happy couple have a daughter, Kim, but Christine's secret past threatens to tear her family apart when mike reappears, forcing Christine to help him escape across the Mexican border. Joseph Pevney, the director of Six Bridges to Cross, Firefox, Female on the Beach and The Midnight Story, helmed this saga of love and sacrifice, shot by the great cinematographer Russell Metty (Touch of Evil). The title song was Tony Bennett's first number-one hit and became one of his many signature songs
