Jeopardy (film)

Jeopardy is a 1953 suspense film noir directed by John Sturges. The black-and-white film stars Barbara Stanwyck and Barry Sullivan as a married couple and Ralph Meeker as an escaped killer. The film was based on a 22-minute radio play, "A Question of Time".

Award-winning cinematographer Victor Milner, in addition to photographing the film, also has a bit part in the movie.

A portion of the film was shot in Pioneertown and features footage of the "cantina" building that now houses the popular hipster music venue known as Pappy & Harriet's.

Plot

Doug and Helen Stilwin (Barry Sullivan and Barbara Stanwyck) along with their son Bobby (Lee Aaker) embark on a vacation into desolate Baja California in Mexico to a remote, deserted fishing spot along the coast that her father used to frequent with his old military buddies. At a roadside barricade heading into the Baja outback, they are inspected by police but are not told about an American killer who has escaped from prison and is at large in the area.

This jeopardy's electricin its universal appalling appeal
this look is gonna gut you 'cause it
can't afford for you to have too much inside
It's your everyday beauty pageant
It's your time in the gaze of the spotlight
It's your day to sizzle in its eye
Are you wanting to pick it up or
are you trying your best to put it down?
This jeopardy awaits you like an
impatient naked lover
The warmth of it caresses you like
sunlight through a magnifying glass
It's your everyday beauty pageant
It's your time in the gaze of the spotlight
It's your day to sizzle in its eye
Are you wanting to pick it up or
are you trying your best to put it down?
You consider you so closely
it makes you want to gouge your eyes out
They consider you so thoroughly
it makes you want to gouge their eyes out too
