Informazioni su questo film

A sudden death. Cries in the night. A locked laboratory in a windswept mansion. It's hard to say what creates more tension in Cry Wolf, the nerve-tingling atmosphere (enhanced by Franz Waxman's edgy score) or the flashfire romantic chemistry between movie immortals Barbara Stanwyck and Errol Flynn in their only screen pairing. Stanwyck plays Sandra, a recent widow who visits her husband's family for the first time and finds herself drawn to a man she knows she should fear: her husband's remote, controlling uncle (Flynn). He seems to know secrets about the eerie cries, the laboratory and why his nephew was buried in a closed coffin. Can Sandra uncover the truth before a second death occurs?

Valutazioni e recensioni

Flynn and Stanwyck, at their best. Amazing chemistry, fantastic dialogue, some corny parts....but I loved it for the performances alone. Catherine Turney also wrote the script for "Mildred Pierce", which is my favourite Crawford film.

It's Barbara Stanwyck..need I say more! It's one of her better films. If you love Alfred Hitchcock movies, you'll love this film. (It could easily pass for a Hitchcock film.)

FABULOUS! It's Errol Flynn and Barbara Stanwyck. Need I say more? Marvelous movie!
