  10. From the imdb: (Film Title) may have flopped at the box office for several reasons but certainly not for lack of quality: the acting is superb (the US actors actually making an effort to sound British), the pacing is vivid and the dynamic music score was nothing if not prophetic of things to come. In spite of its occasional staginess and theatricality, it was very audacious in bringing adult themes and deep motivational analysis to film narrative, a lesson that wouldn't be lost on the later Hitchcock and a host of film noir and horror directors and writers on both sides of the pond. The film got past the censors in the first place because, to Americans, anything British was considered "quaint" and therefore acceptable - even when the plot almost gets away with murder. Still, its preoccupation with questions of social class, sociopathy, sexual attraction and the slightest hint of a happy end must have been quite a shock to the system for the British movie-going public. In conclusion, this is a film that set up several precedents which have been emulated all through the rest of the XXth century, which makes it an unrecognized cinema masterpiece.
  11. Do you know me? I usually played wholesome, girl next door types, but won an Oscar playing against type. A few years later, I had a hit TV series that ran for several years and brought me several Emmy nominations.
