| The Dark past 1948. Columbia Director: Rudolph Mate Cast: William Holden (Al Walker) Lee J. Cobb, Nina Foch, Lois Maxwell, Adele Jergens, Adapted from the Play " Blind Alley" by James Warwick |
| A remake of the 1939 film" Blind Alley" has William Holden as a killer with an Oedipus complex who escapes from prison and with his sweetheart (Foch) and two accomplices seeks refuge in a lakeside cabin presently inhabited by a pipe-smoking psychiatrist (Cobb) who attempts to convince the hood to give himself up. The predictability of the material robbed the film of any surprise but Cobb is marvelous as the psychiatrist, and Holden is wonderful as the psychotic bad guy. The two actors, reunited for the first time after "Golden Boy" work well together and Foch is top- notch as Holden's moll. |

| Meet the Stewarts 1942 Columbia Director: Alfred A. Green Cast: William Holden (Michael Stewart) Frances Dee, . |
| Professor Henry Barnes decides he has lived enough and contemplates suicide. His attitude is changed by Peggy Taylor,(Jeanne Crain) a chipper mother-to-be who charms him in renting his attic as an appartment for her and her husband Jason, (Holden) a former G I struggling to finish college. Holden is a little dull and underused in the movie that focuses on the relation between Crain and Gwenn. |

After some years the three meet again on different sides and the girl, now grown up has to choose between Holden and Carey. Well made but not memorable |
