A woman in a country cottage is brutally murdered by shotgun. The police are baffled as it could be a case of mistaken identity. And where is Serena the painter's model, she of the long distinctive black tresses. A low budget but enjoyable mystery story with a capable cast fitting their roles well. Particularly liked in small parts Vi Stevens as the hard of hearing landlady and bespectacled Peter Glaze as the railway employee. It also is enhanced by the presence of Honor Blackman who brings stylish glamour to the film as was her wont. Patrick Holt is solid as the Scotland Yard policeman. Johnny Gregory provides an apt music score. Perhaps the plot doesn't bear close examination but one is drawn along very nicely to the satisfactory ending.
I wonder what happened to the two paintings of the women used in the film? I liked them.
