Richard G. R Decent little noir, with good performances by Joseph Cotten and Jean Peters. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/03/24 Full Review C L I absolutely loved this movie. It was very suspenseful leaving you completely unsure of the truth right down to the last 2 or 3 minutes. Awesome murder mystery!! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/10/23 Full Review Ted B 3 stars; This 70 year old movie aged well.. Sure, it's not high intense suspense of today's top thrillers. But it carries a line of mystery and suspense all the way to the end. Joseph cotton and Jean Peters bring a chemistry that is unique to Mystery Thriller movies, such as this one and "Niagara". Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/25/23 Full Review Stu B A did-she-or-didn't-she puzzler with a distinct Hitchcockian vibe; it's easy to see how the master himself could have directed this one, possibly for his old '50s-'60s TV show. Joseph Cotten stars as the deeply conflicted Whitney Cameron, who begins to suspect that his widowed sister-in-law--to whom he's attracted--poisoned to death her husband (his brother), has done the same to her young daughter, and is about to have a third go at it by giving an unhealthy dose of strychnine to her little boy...all in an effort to cash in on her late husband's estate. The performances are fine, and--with the facts in doubt till the very last moment--the suspense never lets up. Directed by Andrew L. Stone. See it. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Good story, but preposterous ending (spoiler alert - no jury would convict based on the word of someone who said they put a pill in her drink!) Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Very good! A cliffhanger right up to the last few minutes. Oh, sure, many cliches... orphaned kid, unbelieving friends, 1950's family stuff... but I didn't get it. I even thought the hero was the perp at one point! A must watch on the noir scene.
