About this product

Product Information

Webb Garwood (Van Heflin) is a cynical policeman who believes that success comes from lucky breaks. Responding to a prowler complaint at the home of Susan Gilvray (Evelyn Keyes), he is immediately attracted to her and her wealth. He returns to "check up" on Susan, and they begin an affair, conducted while listening to her husband John (Sherry Hall)'s all-night radio program. Feeling guilty, Susan ends the relationship, but Garwood remains obsessed. He pretends to be a prowler on the Gilvray property so he can respond to another police call. Drawing William outside, he shoots him and makes it appear accidental. When Garwood manipulates Susan's confusion about the shooting, she buys his story, and the lovers marry. However, upon discovering that Susan is pregnant "too soon," they flee to give birth in secret, but eventually Susan learns the devastating truth.

  • miscasting but great acting

    Van Heflin and Keyes are great actors, but it was difficult imagining them in their roles of deception because they are such likeable characters. Somewhat offbeat with unique dark settings...film noir? Trumbo wrote a great allegorical script showing how easily authority can be abused just like the Committee on Unamerican Activities shamefully proved (who unjustly blacklisted him shortly after this movie came out). Certainly worth your time plus it's a good print.

  • Eye opening and relevant to society nowadays

    Movie is very relevant to modern days, one person's intention and desires destroying someone else life, wolfs walking around us pretending to be helpful, listen, gain our trust just to use it for their personal benefits and satisfaction

  • A superb film noir that's at the top of every critic's list!

    One of the ultimate classic film noir - with a screenplay by Dalton Trumbo and directed by Joseph Losey. The climax of this great movie is almost surreal - wow!. A wonderful DVD restoration makes this a fantastic viewing experience. A must-see!!!
