Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Hitchcockian thriller with Baxter as an heiress seemingly the victim of a conspiracy of terror involving the family jewels and someone (Todd) turning up claiming to be her supposedly dead brother. Passably suspenseful, but lacking Hitchcock's plausibility (especially the tricksy ending) and saddled with a dreary performance from the dreary Todd.Author: TM
