Alice Faye emerged from retirement for Otto Preminger’s “film noir,” but in a strictly dramatic role…As luck would have it, Clark Gable’s first movie since wartime military service, “Adventure,” opened the following day at Radio City Music Hall.
This was Alice Faye’s last movie for 20th Century-Fox, effectively retiring from motion pictures at the peak of her fame after 12 years and about 30 movies for the studio, and top-billed in more than half of them.
