Beauty ntest winner Patricia Knight's one bid for screen stardom was Columbia's Shockof. Knight plays Jenny Wright, a nvicted murderess paroled in the care of bation officer Griff Marat (Cornel Wilde). What begins as an aloof fessional relationship eventually blossoms into romance. The fly in the ointment is shady Harry Wesson (John Baragrey), the gambler who inveigled Jenny into mitting murder. The girl is torn between creature forts offered her by Wesson and the mise of a clean life offered by Griff. This early Douglas Sirk effort ntains a smattering of the stylistic touches which distinguished his later work.The screenplay was written by famed director Samuel Fuller, known for his gritty realism and hard-boiled style. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide展开
