This is a strange little movie. made in 1944 by Otto Preminger, who both produces and directs. It stars a very young Vincent Price and a not so young Clifton Webb. They really are the stars despite top billing going to Gene Tierney and Dana Andrews, whose characters seem mere foils to the camp Webb and country bumpkin, turned playboy, Price. The plot is highly unlikely. Its twists and turns seem contrived and yet this is great fun to watch. Its all very stylish, set in luxurious New York apartments and played with great drama.
