Movie Description
Robert Mitchum and Jean Simmons star in this classic tale of love, money, and murder directed by Otto Preminger (ANATOMY OF A MURDER). This film noir centers on Diane, a femme fatale (Simmons) whose sweet features belie the murderess within. Diane is looking for someone to take the heat when her stepmother dies in a mysterious accident and leaves her stepdaughter a hefty inheritance. That someone is Frank (Mitchum)--a man whose average life is thrown into chaos when he meets and marries Diane. Though Mitchum plays the victim here, film fans know him best for roles as a creepy killer in later films like CAPE FEAR and THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTER.
