Esther Williams gets her first post MGM starring role and gets off
to a good start. This film is a well acted entertaining suspense
with a mature theme that would be repeated a million times more
in the future - innocent girl stalked creepy woman hater. Esther
looks great and if she wanted to, probably could have gone on to
do more and better films but according to her autobiography,
pretty much gave up working for marriage. Either way she is so
likable and engaging that its fun to see her in a totally different role
outside of the 'swimming musical'. Universal was fabulous for
making films with former MGM stars after that studio began
dropping its biggest names as it began to slide down hill. Stars
like Lana Turner, June Allyson and others got to make quality first
rate films at Universal as they obviously still had drawing power at
the box office. I wish Esther had made more but since she didnt, it
makes this one all the more special.
