What looked as if it might be promising in the first several minutes, fell into disrepair in no time at all. And kept on falling apart. The only one who demonstrated a hint of amusement was Binnie Barnes as the viperish wife of an imbecile. Ray Milland was actually a mean sort of man; certain scenes seemed to be a rehearsal for his character in "Dial M for Murder". Brian Aherne, usually much more interesting, played a dud of a guy. And the elegant Colbert played it as if she had just rolled out of bed and hadn't even brushed her teeth yet. Had once been a novel, apparently, and then a Broadway play, and now a movie. All 3 of which would have been better off left on the shelf.
