Scarlet Street (1945), directed by Fritz Lang, is a film noir based on the French novel La Chienne [The Bitch] (English titles: Poor Sap [1930], Turn of the Worm and Sensualité [1954]) by Georges de La Fouchardière, that previously had been dramatised on stage by André Mouézy-Éon and cinematically as La Chienne (1931) by director Jean Renoir. The principal actors Edward G. Robinson, Dan Duryea, and Joan Bennett, had earlier appeared together in The Woman in the Window (1944) also directed by Fritz Lang. After the success of that movie the three were re-teamed for Scarlet Street.
