Bob Tribble (Wynn Reichert) has raped a girl who later committed suicide ... but he has gotten off scot-free on a technicality. That's not to say all is good for him as his picture is all over the news and he's quite probably the most-hated man in the state right now ... but then he gets into a bar where nobody knows him or if they do they don't care. And he meets lovely Scarlet (Wendy Keeling) who seems to be rather fond of his company. Well, it's more than just fondness all too soon, she seems to really want him - but her firmness gets too much for him soon, to a point where he's no longer sure whether he's the master of the situation or the prey ...

Shades of Scarlet is quite a clever little thriller as despite its subject matter is avoids spectacle and focuses on suspense - which is blended though with quite a shot of irony - and all of this is just beautifully carried by the two main actors (who just happen to be the director and writer, respectively) to come across as a really cool piece of cinema.
