- Quotes
Clive Franklyn: I'm glad she's dead. I feel free for the first time since I've known her. She obsessed me, she... I couldn't live with her, couldn't live without her. She had everything and nothing. She looked passionate; she was sexless. She had the face of truth; she didn't know the meaning of the word. She was an illusion... nothing.

Featured review
The problem of a too beautiful wife of a too prosperous banker
This is a brilliant thriller on a small scale, the restricted format of less than 80 minutes comprising a considerable mess of intrigues, as this wife already from the beginning shamelessly confesses to her infidelity, while her husband receives an alarming note which we are never initiated in, there is a reckless artist involved also who gets mixed up in some fights, and there is extortion and embezzlement, all in a wonderful complex of a mystery where everyone could be guilty wile they all are proved innocent by alibis. Honor Blackman is the leading actress here, not far from a Lizabeth Scott character, while the fast action makes it difficult for all the men involved to catch on, but it all makes sense in the end with great satisfaction to the audience after a Hitchcockian train finale.
