| Turner Classic Movies OnlineSean Axmaker(The)staging is more theatrical than cinematic, appropriate perhaps for a film so steeped in the culture of Broadway but less effective in building tension... |
| User ReviewBrian TVery great movie, they don't make them like this anymore. |
| User ReviewScott RBrooding drama, there's no real mystery in the murder, but how the plot is structured works with the good performances throughout the cast. |
| User ReviewDave JPossess similar themes with the much superior 1950 film, "All About Eve" but is adapted from William Mercer, starring Rosalind Russell as Valerie Stanton an already successful theater actress but is heavily controlled by brand name producer, Gordon Dunning (Leon Ames). After she accidentally kills him as a result of butting heads since she has fallen in love with a guy named Michael, she would then go a conscience rant since the person who is accused of killing him is her co-starrer Marian Webster played by movie veteran actress Claire Trevor. Sydney Greenstreet as Capt. Danbury is assigned to the case. |
