...says Mrs Mary to the nurse.Mrs Mary is a delightful middle age lady who does her Miss Marple act.As an user has already pointed out,she steals every scene she is in.That just shows how non-Rayesque this movie is.
Maureen O'Hara is a talented attractive actress,but she 's more at ease in Ford's or Dieterle's movies.
The screenplay is primarily a detective story:did Marian really try to kill Susan because her protégé wanted to call it quits (she's a singer)? Marian was herself a singer but she lost her voice and she made Susan a star.
It is an entertaining but impersonal movie.A young person who would like to discover Ray's work had better pick up "rebel without a cause" "Johnny Guitar" or "they live by night".Besides,female rivalry is much better applied on "Born to be bad" ,Ray's 1950 movie.
