Title: Clunky and preposterous
Product review: A sloppy film that doesn't serve the best interests of anyone involved. Joan Fontaine is relegated to a supporting role that just about anybody could have played. Dana Andrews comes off as a mildy interested bystander, which is strange because he's the star. Most of the other performances are flat, but the real villain in this mess is the script, which is outrageously flawed. It begins with a crazy premise (frame a man for murder to prove the death penalty is flawed) and gets progressively loopier until it defies logic and credibility. To say more would be to give away too much, so I'll leave it at that. Save your money and skip it.
