  • The Red House stars Edward G. Robinson as Pete Morgan who, with his spinster sister Ellen (Judith Anderson) has raised Meg (Allene Roberts) as their own on a secluded farm. Now a teen, Meg convinces her friend Nath (Lon McCallister) to come help with chores on the farm. Despite Pete's warning of terrors within an abandoned red house in the woods, Meg and Nath explore deep into the forest and discover troubling secrets. The gorgeous music score is by Oscar winner Miklós Rózsa who also composed for Double Indemnity and Spellbound. The Red House is a moody, atmospheric noir drama at its best!
    Director: Delmer Daves
    Writers: George Agnew Chamberlain, Delmer Daves
    Starring: Edward G. Robinson, Lon McCallister, Judith Anderson, Rory Calhoun, Julie London, Allene Roberts, Julie London

      i truly LOVE this film. i WISH it were better known to old movie fans. to me it is one of the most freudian films EVER! in danny peary's review of king kong his theory is that skull island represents the subconscious mind of carl denham. this theory can easily be applied to the ox head woods and edward g. robinson's character in the red house 1947. just as the dark memories of the past are repressed (or least he attempts to repress them) in the back of his mind, the red house is buried deep within the ox head woods. EGR can not guard the ox head woods. he has a bad leg. often in cinema freudian terms a lame leg = impotence. he hires a much younger, much more virile man for the job (rory calhoun) who is always popping off his rifle (a phallic symbol). when the teens go searching for the red house their quest is in vain as one 'non-believer' is present and distractions are a plenty. yet when the young girl goes to sleep her subconscious mind unlocks the deep buried memory of the secret location of the red house. she awakens and goes straight to the red house.

Robinson; but for whatever reason, just couldn't get interested. I'm glad I tried again tonight because it's a really great movie. Judith Anderson was wonderful in the role of Ellen.

So when I found this movie here a while back, I pictured my mother pregnant with me watching and while waiting for my National Guard father who was stationed elsewhere away from us to see this picture and saying thats my daughter's name. True? , I don't really know but love the movie and the thoughts of past dreams of family futures.

    Without spoiling anything,
    the ending reminded me of Scorsese's Cape fear
    and also the mystery of the woods
    reminded me of David Lynch.
    I think this film even influenced The Night of the Hunter.
    Anyway that's my take on a first-time watch.
    Lots of nice cinematic moments with no dialogue.
    The music building during scenes in the woods.
    Great cast too.
    Including Aussie Judith Anderson.

    This movie reminds me of The Unseen with Barbara Bach. The film's content and the how Edward G. Robertson sickness almost destroys his "niece/daughter" is just sleazy and horrifying. I would call this a horror movie, because the last 25 minutes switches into a Fatal Attraction obsession. The real hero is Judith Anderson, how she sacrifices herself to save the girl.

    The film begins with the narrator saying that roads are beating back the unknown darkness of ancient forests.

I suppose that you can call that being close to nature, but our knowledge of the world and all the creatures in it, including ourselves, is now vastly greater than it ever was in the past. We have always changed the world around us to suit ourselves, driving many other species to extinction in the process, and we are still doing it.

    On these old movies, the girl’s room is always so pretty with a window overlooking a lake. And her guardians love her so much. Kind of a twist I wasn’t expecting. You have a young senior in high school, adopted being raised in a loving home. There is town gossip but nothing about the couple who disappeared or how the brother and sister gained a child. The girl wants to get farm help for her father figure but picks a boy she has a crush on and is dating someone else. They never explained how Teller got $750 which was a lot back then for living in the woods and whether he lived in the red cabin. The sister knew what the brother had done and kept his secret for 16 years, giving up the one chance she had for love, marriage and children. Although she got to help raise Meg. The doctor must have asked where the child came from. Maybe he even delivered Meg. I kind of don’t know why they still couldn’t get married, live on the farm and keep her brother and Meg under their roof. But the sister never turned her brother in, only loved and forgave him. He killed out of jealous rage even though Jeanie was married to someone else. But after his jealous rage, he turned into a loving father figure for 16 years until a guy came into Meg’s life simultaneously while Nate was curious and disobeyed orders to stay out of the woods. That appeared to have opened up skeletons in the closet for the loving father figure to the point he went off the deep end. Why the sister didn’t see it coming. Why they didn’t move away a long time ago or get him help. Even while dying, the sister told Meg to have pity and to love her father figure guardian and the first thing Meg does is go into the house and make him feel that she hates him and will be leaving. The sister is already dead, the family is falling apart, the brother is off the deep end and Nate again has to go into the woods causing all of them to go out after him. Meg begged Pete to go get Nate and it just made things worst until he almost killed Meg and then killed himself.

      "The doctor must have asked where the child came from. Maybe he even delivered Meg."
      I think everyone knew who Meg/the child was. When her parents died, it was probably deemed an accident. Only Pete Morgan and his sister Ellen know the truth. And they legally adopted Meg.

    i LOVE the red house 1947. to me it is one of the most freudian films EVER! in danny peary's review of king kong his theory is that skull island represents the subconscious mind of carl denham. this theory can easily be applied to the ox head woods and edward g. robinson's character in the red house 1947. just as the dark memories of the past are repressed (or least he attempts to repress them) in the back of his mind, the red house is buried deep within the ox head woods. EGR can not guard the ox head woods. he has a bad leg. often in cinema freudian terms a lame leg = impotence. he hires a much younger, much more virile man for the job (rory calhoun) who is always popping off his rifle (a phallic symbol). when the teens go searching for the red house their quest is in vain as one 'non-believer' is present and distractions are a plenty. yet when the young girl goes to sleep her subconscious mind unlocks the deep buried memory of the secret location of the red house. she awakens and goes straight to the red house!

    When I watch these old films , even those made pre 2000 , my first observation is women without body graffiti.
    Sad how women of all ages today , think 'ink shaped' spiders , crabs and snakes somehow enhances their looks or makes them more appealing. Ofcourse, I forgot to mention the personal body statements they claim to make as to why they have them .
    I cannot imagine the old Hollywood greats like Jane Russel , Judy Garland , Ginger Rogers , Marilyn Monroe 'sporting' such eyesores . 🤔🆓✝️🇬🇧

    This is pretty good, even the stereotypical characters have some originality. There is the overbearing father who thinks he can give orders to a 17 year old, the hot-headed high school boy who is worried about being thought yellow--whatever that means--and who does not realize that not doing foolish things is the courageous thing. Then there is the gun-happy hunter man dumber than the animals he is supposed to shoot. There are a couple of stretches in the plot, like the question of money.

    Thirty minutes in. Somehow the actor who played Nath, Lon McCallister, is playing a character that is stupid, rude and obnoxious to all the people he encounters. Not to mention he is a lousy actor. But he also strikes me as someone in real life acts the same way. Hard to watch, when everyone else performs admirably.

    • @melodramaboy
      @melodramaboy 2 роки тому +2

      What an ill-informed comment. Lon McCallister was a charming, underrated actor, and briefly one of the most popular in the mid-40s. He excelled in bucolics such as Home in Indiana. He realised his boyishness and short stature would limit his career, and he vowed to leave films by the age of 30. This he did, turning successfully to real estate. In one of his later interviews, he said he had no regrets, ‘preferring the anonymity of a has-been.’ Despite your rude assertion that Lon was ‘obnoxious’ in real life, he was in fact a lovely, sensitive man, loyal and kind, attested to by many of his co-stars ( including Allene Roberts), with whom he forged lifelong friendships.
