| User ReviewSylvester EJoan Fontaine and Joseph Cotten are wonderful in this film. A true HOLLYWOOD classic from start to finish....!!!! |
| User ReviewNina SWell acted soap opera, what really puts this over is the incredibly beautiful score. |
| User ReviewZ PThere is something so wrong, yet so right about this movie. The plot seems to be heavier than what Fontaine and Cotten can carry. Clearly, Joseph Cotten and Joan Fontaine are two of cinema's greatest actors, but their chemistry together wasn't strong enough to pull this off. The cinematography, though, is exquisite, and Fontaine has never looked better. |
| User ReviewLorna GI watched most of it but missed the end :o(. What I did see was good. |
