From Woman in Hiding (dir. Michael Gordon, 1950), cinematography by William Daniels. A mill is the setting for this extended scene in the dark. If you look closely, you can see Ida Lupino climbing steps in the first image. Howard Duff and Stephen McNally (or two stunt doubles) are fighting in the second. Non-spoiler spoiler: no one falls to his death there. That’s Lupino and McNally in the third image.

While reading a site about The Avengers (the 60s TV show), I learned a lot of their walking/distance shots are doubles. Watching more carefully I could see it. Made me wonder about the amount of work to do the double work vs. the actor close-ups.
A lot of stunt work in this scene, I think.
