The Scarlet Hour
CrimeDramaThriller95 min
A frustrated man falls into an affair with his employer’s wife, and the secret quickly turns into something riskier. While meeting in a lovers’ lane, the pair overhear a gang planning to steal a cache of jewels. Instead of going to the police, they see the heist as a way out and begin plotting to take the loot for themselves. That choice pulls them deeper into a world of double-crosses, suspicion, and panic, where every move could expose the affair or put them in the gang’s path. With Carol Ohmart and Tom Tryon at the center, the story tracks how greed and desire tighten into a trap.
