Steel Town 1952 Film Noir Drama - Ann Sheridan, John Lund, Howard Duff, George Sherman, Steel Mill

Set in and around the Kaiser Steel Mill in the modern city of Fontana, California, this drama plays out with remarkable use of Technicolor. This film is often referred to as film noir but plays out more like a soap drama, set around the heat, power and modernity of this Steel Town. The use of Technicolor here gives everything and everyone in this modern city a surreal look, much like Peyton Place, Twin Peaks, and Mon Oncle. Directed by George Sherman and starring Ann Sheridan, John Lund, and Howard Duff. Location shooting took place at the Kaiser Steel Mill in Fontana, California with the remainder shot at Universal City. The film's sets were designed by the art directors Robert Clatworthy and Bernard Herzbrun. You can watch the teaser trailer of Steel Town's Premiere in Detroit here    • Steel Town 1952 Premiere in Detroit Traile...   I noticed a remarkable machine at 0:50:00 - I have never seen anything quite like this before. So far, all I could discover, is that it appears to be a type of pantelegraph, using an electronic pantograph system over standard telephone wires. The only similar devices I could find were used during the latter part of the 1800s, this device looks far more modern. It's quite something to have a machine that directly duplicates writing and drawing remotely. Thanks to a kind viewer @rayshowsay1749 that curious machine is now identified. "It's what we knew as a Telautograph, or 'Telaut'. it used a single line for dedicated in-house use between two offices, while the movie one apparently uses a telephone line, implying possible multiple routings." I put a clip from the Premiere in Detroit here:    • Steel Town 1952 Premiere in Detroit Traile...   Stars: Ann Sheridan, John Lund, Howard Duff Director: George Sherman Writers: Gerald Drayson Adams, Lou Breslow, Leonard Freeman Insights: Production Jeff Chandler was originally announced to play the male lead. Taglines Men of steel! Women of flesh! Trivia The John Lund character drives a white 1951 Kaiser DeLuxe Sedan with a black top as an example of early product placement since the factory scenes were filmed at Kaiser Steel in California. Subtitles I created English subtitles for the film since none existed...
