Anne Sears accepts an invitation from a former associate of her late father's, named Hilton Edwards. Edwards presents Anne with an unexpected proposition.
Sometimes you'll take a chance on a film from the 1950's, and discover a real gem. Sadly this isn't one of those finds, but it's not all bad.
It's a little slow moving, at times it is a little boring, but the story is relatively interesting enough to keep you engaged. The twist at the end, perhaps was a little too easy to spot, the camera lingered a little too long on the victim, it made you think.
There are a few too many stereotypes, such as the overcoat wearing Detective, he was somewhat one dimensional, some of the other characters just lacked any spark.
Rod was definitely the most interesting character, and by far the best element of the film, he was an interesting guy, he's like a vision from the sixties, whilst his captive looks like she's arrived from thr forties.
Anne has a somewhat vacant, glazed look on her face, which initially I thought may have been shock, but by the end of the film I wasn't too sure, you'd have thought the penny may have dropped a little earlier on.
It's alright, just a bit too slow.
5/10.
