Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

Granger and Simmons, husband-and-wife team of the time, are well matched in this florid Edwardian thriller (from WW Jacobs' The Interruption), in which he's the master of the house and she's the maid hoping to blackmail her way up the pecking order by threatening to reveal that he's just done away with his wife. The twisty plot stretches credibility here and there, but the film's gusto is infectious and Granger's limited range is much suited to period caddishness.

    Posted on Jul 07 2008 08:52 I am watching it right now. It,s on channel 4, matinee show, July 7,2008. It,s a great movie. Very athmospheric. Great acting of husband and wife team,Mr Stuart Granger and Miss Jean Simmons. She,s very pretty, by the way. And a great supporting cast lead by my favourite British actor, Mr. Bill Travers, who is also wonderful in this film. A great Hithcockian English film. A must for every fans.

    Posted on Dec 07 2007 13:21 Wow! What a wonderful suspence. Take you all the way to the end. This movie would make a great re-make if it was taken just as written, no fancy special effects. Stuart Granger draws you into his web so easily, You actually want Jean Simmons to ran away and not get inloved with this man. But at the same time she almost as bad as Granger. I don't know where this movie has been. I thought I'd seen them all. Don't leave it for a minute or you will miss some very important clues.
