Intriguing psychological drama in the film noir genre. Ann Sutton ( Tierney ) is married to Dr. William Sutton ( Conte ) a psycoanalyst. Ann is arrested for shoplifting, but a smooth talking hypnotist David Korvo ( Ferrer ) persuades the store not to prosecute. At a party with Korvo, Ann meets his ex-lover Theresa Randolph ( O’Neil ) who is still bitter over their breakup and is now a patient of Dr. Sutton. Korvo manipulates Ann setting her up for the murder of Theresa. Dr. Sutton and lawyer Martin Avery ( Franz ) know she is innocent and suspect Korvo, but can’t break his alibi. Lt. Colton ( Bickford ) and Avery get Ann to confess her guilt, but she will only admit she is a shoplifter. A real tangled web of intrigue punctuated by Preminger’s great direction. A must see for the film noir fan!

  2. 41:36 — "… and Doctor Peter Duvall, psychiatrist with the Los Angeles Police station …"
    He uses a "hard G" in "Los Angeles." (I.e., "Los An-gull-us" as opposed to "Los An-gel-us.") 
    The only other time I have heard that was in the opening of Firesign Theater's "Nick Danger" routine–and I thought they did it intentionally for the humor.
    Do some people actually say it that way?

    For the uninitiated: Here is the beginning of "The Further Adventures of Nick Danger":

    ANNOUNCER: Los Angeles… He walks again by night…
    NICK: (whistles)
    ANNOUNCER: Out of the fog, into the smog…
    NICK: (cough, cough)
    ANNOUNCER: Relentlessly… ruthlessly…
    NICK: I wonder where Ruth is?
    ANNOUNCER: …doggedly… 
    DOG: (bark bark)
    NICK: Eh, get away from me…
    ANNOUNCER: … towards his weekly meeting with–the unknown. At 4th and Drucker he turns left, at Drucker and 4th he turns right, he crosses MacArthur Park and walks into a great sandstone building. 
    (smack!) 
    NICK: Oh, my nose!

    … Etc.

  3. First of all, many thanks for uploading this, both my wife and I enjoyed it very much.
    HOWEVER:
    Before we could enjoy this video, I had to make it watchable by using an editing app to remove the horizontal s t r e t c h applied to the image.
    Are we the only ones to notice how unnaturally plump the characters in the video are? Surely not.
    The correct aspect ratio for movies filmed before 1953 is 4:3.
    This version has been purposely stretched horizontally to fill the wider 16:9 ratio.
    Please – DON'T DO THIS AGAIN.

  4. (3:15) If I was a big shopping store THERE IS NO WAY IN THE WORLD I WOULD ARREST MY CUSTOMERS FOR STEALING. IT IS HUMILIATING AND CRUEL. I WOULD HELP THEM! I WOULD TREAT THEM WITH CARING AND RESPECT. 😭
