Four Star Playhouse X 4
Annie Van Auken | Planet Earth | 09/12/2007
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This edition of GOLDEN AGE THEATER features four episodes from FOUR STAR PLAYHOUSE. This half-hour anthology series ran from September '52 to July '56, 9 PM Sundays on the CBS network and originally aired bi-weekly. The program had a regular rotation of four stars (thus the name). They were: Dick Powell, David Niven, Charles Boyer and Ida Lupino. In its second season the Playhouse went to a weekly schedule.



SYNOPSES:



"House For Sale" - While house shopping in the country, a woman encounters a killer.



"Man on the Train" - A train passenger overhears a conversation about a fortune in a briefcase which leads to murder. Directed by Robert Florey of Marx Brothers/"The Cocoanuts" fame.



"Sound Off, My Love" - A beautiful but vain woman finally gets a hearing aid and overhears her husband plotting her murder. Another one directed by Florey.



"The Story Of Emily Cameron" - A man is guilt-ridden over the car wreck that disabled his wife.
