6/10
Teasingly ambiguous dark fairy tale
26 March 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Intriguing thriller that's quite erotic and daring for its time (with its pseudo-incest theme and Mimsy Farmer's incredible fully-nude scenes). Rita Hayworth's presence is a pleasant surprise: even though this film came late into her career, she looks just fine and gives a touching performance. The wonderfully enigmatic Farmer keeps you guessing: does she really have the hots for whom she honestly believes to be her brother, or is she playing some sort of game? The ending reveals the true source and topic of this thriller: loneliness. **1/2 out of 4.
