The Strange Love of Martha Ivers (1946)
A man is reunited with his childhood friend and her husband, who believe he knows the truth about the death of her rich aunt years earlier.
High-pitched melodrama with Noir elements takes its intricate plot to its bitter ending; the star cast make it work.
On rewatching: Indeed a pretty good Noir melodrama with a superb cast.
Halliwell**: "Irresistible star melodrama which leaves no stone unturned; compulsive entertainment of the old school."
Maltin***: "Gripping melodrama..."
First Lines: Neal Stephenson - Anathem
"Do your neighbors burn one another alive?" was how Fra Orolo began his conversation with Artisan Flex.
