| User ReviewJames H83/100. What a wonderful production, a lot of attention to detail. Martha Scott is quite good in a role rather unusual for her. John Mills is excellent and is convincing in his portrayal. It is such a different movie, so beautifully told. I never once lost interest, the plot and characters are so impressively developed. The story has unexpected twists the peak your interest. Excellent. |
