![]() is a Douglas Sirk's movie, with two US female leads, Claudette Colbert and Ann Blyth, and a bunch of British actors—though shot at Universal Studios, California, the action is set in "Norfolk county, England, when the floods came"—: Robert Douglas, Anne Crawford, Philip Friend, Gladys Cooper, Michael Pate, John Abbott, Connie Gilchrist, Phyllis Stanley, and so on. 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. |
