Description of this Niagara Poster
Niagara is a 1953 American film noir, directed by Henry Hathaway, produced by Charles Brackett, and written by Brackett, Richard L. Breen, and Walter Reisch. The film stars Marilyn Monroe, Joseph Cotten, Jean Peters, and Max Showalter (credited as Casey Adams). It was one of 20th Century Fox’s biggest box office hits that year.
Unlike other film noirs of the time, which were generally in black and white, Niagara was filmed in three-strip Technicolor (one of the last films to be shot at Fox in this format, as a few months later, Fox began converting to CinemaScope, which had compatibility problems with three-strip, but not with Eastmancolor).
Monroe got the lead in Niagara, which propelled her to stardom. Her next two films, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953) and How to Marry a Millionaire (1953), were even bigger hits.
Ray and Polly Cutler, on a delayed honeymoon at Niagara Falls, find their reserved cabin occupied by George and Rose Loomis. Rose tells them that George is asleep and has just been released from an Army psychiatric hospital after his service in Korea. The Cutlers politely, but reluctantly, accept another, less desirable cabin, and the two couples become acquainted.
George and Rose have a very troubled and unstable marriage. She is younger and very attractive. He is jealous, depressed, and irritable. The next day, while visiting the falls, Polly sees Rose passionately kissing another man, her lover Patrick.
That evening, the Cutlers witness George’s anger. Rose joins an impromptu party and demands a record of her favorite song, “Kiss.” George storms out of their cabin and smashes the record, suspecting the song has a secret meaning for Rose. Seeing that George has cut his hand with the record, Polly goes to his room to apply mercurochrome and bandages. George confides in her that he was a sheep farmer and that his luck changed after marrying Rose, whom he met while she was a bartender.
The next day, Rose tricks George into following her into the dark tourist tunnel beneath the falls, where Patrick is waiting to kill him. To let Rose know that George is dead, Patrick asks the Rainbow Tower chime to play “Kiss.” When she hears the melody played by the chime bells, Rose concludes that George is dead.
In fact, it was George who killed Patrick, threw his body down the falls, and retrieved Patrick’s shoes from the exit instead of his own. This leads the police to believe that George is the victim. The body is recovered, and the police bring in Rose to identify George’s body. When the face is uncovered and she recognizes the dead man, she collapses before she can say anything and is admitted to the hospital.
The motel manager moves the Cutlers’ belongings into the Loomises’ cabin. George goes to the cabin looking for Rose but finds Polly sleeping in her place. She wakes up and sees him before he runs away. She notifies the police, who launch a search operation. During the Cutlers’ second visit to the falls, George finds Polly alone for a moment. While trying to escape, she slips, but he saves her from falling into the torrent of the waterfall. He explains that he killed Patrick in self-defense and begs her to “let me die.” Polly leaves without responding. Later that day, she tells the police detective that she thinks George is alive. George plays “Kiss” again on the carillon to panic Rose, who runs away from the hospital with the intention of crossing the border back into the United States. Seeing that George is waiting for her at the border, she runs away and tries to hide in the carillon’s bell tower. George catches up to her and strangles her beneath the bells, which remain silent. Realizing he is locked in the building, he sits beside her body and remorsefully tells her that he loved her. The Cutlers go fishing with Ray’s boss and his wife in a speedboat on a section of the Niagara River above the falls. When the boat docks in Chippawa to refuel with gas and other supplies, George robs it with Polly on board. She asks him to surrender as self-defense, but he tells her he cannot because he killed Rose. The police give chase. The boat runs out of gas and drifts toward the falls. As they approach the edge, George scuttles the boat to slow it down and manages to get Polly onto a large rock before she goes over the falls and dies. Polly is rescued from the rock by a U.S. Coast Guard helicopter.
