Virginia Graham The Spectator The implausibility of the story is successfully screened by the dialogue which is refreshingly natural, and there are many delightful touches which the producer, Mr. Buddy Rogers, exploits to advantage. Jun 19, 2018 Full Review Fernando F. Croce CinePassion A blueprint of infidelity and manipulation shot by Douglas Sirk with tons of baleful wit Jan 30, 2015 Full Review Michael E.

Steve D Good idea but unfocused, Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/01/24 Full Review Audience Member when the prince dont wanna wake u up instead :D Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Douglas Sirk maintains a terrific suspenseful atmosphere throughout the entire film. The result is a riveting noir with a memorable screenplay and excellent performances from a great cast, most notably the very talented Claudette Colbert as Alison Courtland Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Well made wife-in-distress thriller, creatively directed by douglas sirk but feels like 'gaslight' but set in contemporary (well 1948 that is) times. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie is a lot like films like Gaslight, which were better. There is a pretty good cast, and it starts out a pretty good mystery. Then it gets to be predictable, and it's not as good as it could be. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Before his 50's Technicolor women's weepers, Douglas Sirk was a deft hand at norish melodrama, and here he has a good cast, with Claudette Colbert psychologically hypnotized by caddish husband Don Ameche to slowly driver her crazy. "Citizen Kane's" George Coulouris is especially effective as the meek co-conspirator to Ameche. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
