Viewing Notes
Stanwick eats the screen up as the scheming housewife opposite Fred MacMurray playing against type; both feasting on some great dialogue from Raymond Chandler. Beautifully shot.

Way overdue for a revisit on this one. Was lukewarm on it but I have a feeling my opinion will change after 15 years and thousands of movies later haha

Yeah, I felt the same way. I remember being kind of underwhelmed by it originally.
