The Arnelo Affair
The Arnelo Affair is a 1947 American dramatic film cowritten and directed by Arch Oboler and featuring John Hodiak, George Murphy, Frances Gifford and Dean Stockwell.
The film earned 524,000 in the US and Canada and 314,000 elsewhere. Although MGM records do not state whether the film was profitable, the cost of 892,000 makes it likely it incurred a loss.Film critic Bosley Crowther panned the film. He wrote, And childish it is, beyond question, despite the promising presence in the cast of John Hodiak, Frances Gifford, George Murphy and other minor names. Its a stream of consciousness fable about a lawyers neglected wife who takes up with a nightclub owner and gets into a most embarrassing jam. It is unmercifully slow and sombre and utterly devoid of surprise. ........
