From Robert Siodmak, the brilliant director of The Suspect, The Spiral Staircase, The Killers, Cry of the City, Criss Cross and Deported, comes this lush, noir-tinged melodrama set in 19th-century New England. Phyllis CaIvert (The Man in Grey, lndiscreet) is young housekeeper Kate Fernald, who faIIs in love with Christopher Fortune, pIayed by Robert Hutton (The Steel HeImet, They Came from Beyond Space). Christopher is a weaIthy ship captain’s son who would rather study music than the sea. Aware that their union is not to be, Kate renounces her true love and encourages him to wed someone from his own social cIass. As the years go by, Kate is the mute witness to Christopher’s frustration and unhappiness, culminating in a fatal bout with aIcohol. EIIa Raines (Phantom Lady, The Web) is stunning as Christopher’s "sensibIe" sister Rissa, whiIe Eddie AIbert (Attack!), Leo G. Carroll (SpelIbound), HeIena Carter (lnvaders from Mars) and John Abbott (Gambit) also give steIIar performances in this sumptuous adaptation of the acclaimed noveI by RacheI Field (All This, and Heaven Too).
