I know the movie doesn't work for everyone, but when it does it's very compelling and powerful.<br /><br />Thanks for your comments! And you've got an excellent movie blog yourself! Nice job!Williamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053290865549099074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8212867859094085036.post-30694840354480992702009-06-16T16:49:32.849-04:002009-06-16T16:49:32.849-04:00I've only watched it once ... but I have a fun...I've only watched it once ... but I have a funny feeling the more you watch it, the better it gets. Like some very strange puzzle. But, from the-first-viewing perspective I have, reading your review makes me want to go back and visit it once again, which simply says how alluring the whole story is - falling deeply in love with someone, so much so, you try adn recreate the same person. The passion is truly unique and only James Stewart could deliver such an impeccable performance.simoncolumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027922399726786918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8212867859094085036.post-84036312844439982912009-06-16T13:42:08.603-04:002009-06-16T13:42:08.603-04:00I couldn't agree with you more.

You sort of know that Judy has to pay for her part in the murder -- even if she tried to stop it at the very end -- but you feel so damn sorry for Stewart. You have to wonder -- does he throw himself off after her, or just wind up back in the sanitarium. And what about poor Barbara Bel Geddes. yes, it's a sad movie on many levels. -- WilliamWilliamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053290865549099074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8212867859094085036.post-53444853451073886072009-06-15T14:35:01.571-04:002009-06-15T14:35:01.571-04:00Marvellous movie all round.

Every time I see it I still half hope Scotty and Judy will get a happy ending, but it always ends the same way. <br />One of those movies where it's actually true that it gets better with repeated viewings.Colinhttp://filmjournal.net/livius/noreply@blogger.com
