Eerie film showcasing an excellent chain-smoking Henry Fonda as a distraught lover who kills the eerie mad-like magician,Vincent Price, who discovers his girl-friend, Barbara Bel Geddes and begins to stalk here.
The acting here is good especially by Fonda, who wears the same hat and acts in a similar fashion as he did in "The Grapes of Wrath." He is essentially a beaten down character, at war with society who vacillates between pessimism and optimism.
Bel Geddes is outstanding especially in the latter part of the film. Her justification for living would ever serve as an inspiration to Bishop Fulton J. Sheen.
Ann Dvorak, as the mysterious Charlene, is also quite good. The film is really uneven as it doesn't explain why the Fonda character becomes involved with Charlene, Price's assistant in his magic.
