In a nutshell, it's a whodunit in a nut shell, I mean, in a convent. The culprit though is not a nun. The climax can predate a bit and somehow Hitchcock's Vertigo ending. Some over-acting here and there (Blyth, not very good; Phyllis Stanley, as a bit over-the-top English frustrated-to-crazy nurse), but when it comes to scenes with only two or three people, direction can be quite effective and the story becomes gripping, helped by a nice photography made by William Daniels. Colbert is beautfiul and restrained and good. In the end, a pleasant movie. With one car. British, I assume.
