Scarlet Street

In New York, Christopher Cross is celebrating his twenty-fifth years as a cashier of a company where he receives a golden watch at a dinner party. A middle-aged amateurish painter, Christopher, protects a young woman, Katharine March, from an assault on the street by a young man, Johnny Prince, without knowing that he is her lover. Chris invites Kitty for a drink at a bar, and presents himself as a successful and wealthy painter. The small time crook, Johnny, sees the chance to raise easy money and convinces the manipulative Kitty to take as much money as possible from Chris. He embezzles his company and steals his wife, and Kitty moves to a huge studio. Chris brings his paintings to the new address, and Johnny takes them for evaluation. He finds out they are considered masterpieces by an arts critic and by the owner of a gallery. Kitty pretends to be the painter, becomes famous, and leads them to a tragic conclusion.
