A novelist runs off with his publisher's wife, abandoning his own wife, but while on the train he has second thoughts and pulls the emergency brake cord and jumps off the train. When the woman he was with is found shot to death on board, he's wanted for murder. (Verleiher-Text)
Kritiken (1)
It has the façade of a film noir and actually incorporates some noir elements, especially in terms of mystery and the unexpected, but it's definitely not in the hard-boiled school of noir. Instead, it's more akin to something Hitchcock might have directed, although Hitchcock's work tends to be more convincing and impactful. Still, the film is very good and I watched it from beginning to end.
