Scarlet Street consists of a variety of different types of actors and actresses. There is a cashier, a scheming prostitute, and her boyfriend is even a harder schemer than she is. Scarlett fakes her death, but in reality it turns out to be a true murder. This is just one of many masterful scenes in what is arguably Fritz Lang’s greatest American film and one of his finest overall. A mild mannered cashier and Sunday afternoon artist, is being honored at a dinner in a Greenwich Village restaurant for twenty-five years of loyal service to his company. Later that night, on his way to the subway to go back to his Brooklyn apartment, he sees a woman being smacked around by a man.
