Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaShirley Jackson was not impressed with this filmed adaptation of her novel "The Bird's Nest". Her assessment: "Abbott and Costello meet a multiple personality." (From Ruth Franklin's 2016 biography "Shirley Jackson: A Rather Haunted Life".)
- GoofsAt the bar, the piano singer (Johnny Mathis) is singing, and Robin is there with another girl. In one shot, smoke is rising from a cigarette in an ashtray on the piano. In the next shot, from over the singer's right shoulder, no smoke is coming from the ashtray. Then, in the last shot at the bar - a closeup of Mathis - smoke again can be seen rising; this all occurs during the same song.
- Quotes
[last lines]
Elizabeth Richmond: [from the top of the stairs as the doctor is at the front door ready to leave] Dr. Wright... Good night, and thank you.
Dr. Neal Wright: [just before exiting the front door] Good night... and, happy birthday.

Featured review
Great Classic Film
I LOVE this movie! Eleanor Parker does an amazing job conveying three personalities. Joan Blondell plays the perfect caring, but booze-obssessed aunt who really can't understand or help Elizabeth. Richard Boone is always good as the serious professional, in this case Elizabeth's psychiatrist. Hugo Haas - great director and perfect interfering-but-with-good-intentions neighbor. The addition of Johnny Mathis singing "It's Not For Me To say" in the cocktail lounge is icing on the cake! I've watched this movie many times and it remains a favorite!
