Ladies in Retirement (1941, USA) Featuring Ida Lupino, Louis Hayward - Film Noir Full Movie

Ellen Creed, a proud spinster fallen on hard times, has spent the past two years as housekeeper and companion to her old friend Leonora Fiske, a wealthy retiree who in her youth had been a chorus girl “of easy virtue“. Ellen receives a letter threatening that unless she can tame her two peculiar sisters, the police will be called and the sisters will be evicted from their lodgings for outlandish behaviour. Leonora allows Ellen to invite her sisters to visit. One day when Ellen is away, handsome young stranger Albert Feather appears, claiming to be Ellen’s nephew. Leonora lends him money, but Albert makes her promise not to tell Ellen about either his visit or the loan.
