Its a modest film without sparkling dialogue or striking cinematography but with a decent enough story and pace to be entertaining enough. Indeed from the opening scenes with Glenn Ford struggling with a runaway truck to the very end this barely pauses for breath with something new at every corner. The alternative title, Paula, whilst not great is probably better than Framed for with this latter title I rather found myself anticipating the action. Janis Carter is better in some scenes than others but overall carries the role of the classic femme fatale well enough whilst Ford is immaculate, so suave and relaxed, indeed this is probably a walk in the park compared to the previous years Gilda.
