From a story by Robert Siodmak and Alfred Neumann, sold to Warner Bros. Bogart didn't want to do it. Eventually did.
He bumps off his wife Rose Hobart as he fancies her sister Alexis Smith, but then there's weird signs that she might be still alive.. Unfortunately it's a bit easy to guess what's going on. Flashes on a Bogart we hadn't really seen up till that point are rewards. A then-fashionable dose of psychiatry is buttered on.
With Sidney Greenstreet, Charles Drake, Grant Mitchell, Edwin Stanley. Music by Frederick Hollander, photographed by Merritt Gerstad.
