The File On Thelma Jordon is a thrilling film noir from 1949 that stars Barbara Stanwyck as the titular character Thelma Jordon, a seductive and sophisticated woman caught up in a tangled web of deception and murder. The film begins as Thelma Jordon, a beautiful woman living alone in a large mansion in a small town, walks into the district attorney's office and confesses to the murder of her wealthy aunt. As the police and DA begin to investigate the case, they quickly become suspicious of Thelma's every move, and begin to suspect that there may be more to the case than meets the eye.

The DA, Cleve Marshall (played by Wendell Corey), finds himself drawn to Thelma, even as he begins to suspect her involvement in the murder. Thelma, meanwhile, seems to be juggling multiple lovers and using her charm and beauty to manipulate everyone around her.

As the investigation deepens, new details emerge about Thelma's past and the events leading up to her aunt's murder. Cleve finds himself drawn further into Thelma's web of deceit, even as he fights to keep his objectivity and bring the real killer to justice.

Throughout the film, Barbara Stanwyck shines in the role of Thelma Jordon, perfectly capturing the character's blend of sex appeal, vulnerability, and cunning. Wendell Corey is also excellent as the conflicted and increasingly obsessed Cleve Marshall, while Paul Kelly shines as the no-nonsense police detective who is determined to crack the case.

The film is beautifully shot in classic film noir style, with shadowy images and moody lighting adding to the atmosphere of tension and malice. The story itself is intricate and well-crafted, with plenty of twists and turns to keep the audience guessing until the very end.

Overall, The File on Thelma Jordon is a gripping and stylish thriller that showcases the talents of its talented cast and crew. If you are a fan of classic film noir or just love a good mystery, this is a must-see film.
