This film is quite similar to the George Sanders flick of 1954, "Witness to Murder." Again, Sanders is a murderer who is trying to drive everyone batty. This time, his victim is Stewart Granger, who he nicely frames for the killing of his Italian actress wife. The beginning scenes show this wife as a screaming, hot tempered woman in the same vain as the late Anna Magnani.
Donna Reed plays Granger's wife. It appears that she is willing to at first believe that Granger had committed the murder. He was romantically involved with Sanders' wife. Reed is much more subdued in this film. Was she preparing for her kindly the Donna Reed television show on television? She lacks the fire that won her the supporting Oscar as Montgomery Clift's girl friend in the magnificent "From Here to Eternity."
