Cast

Critical reception

The New York Times wrote, "an obvious fly-by-night, with a pretty good cast headed by the gifted Margaret Leighton and John Justin, this Associated Artists release is a slow, contrived and exasperatingly arch puzzler that sets some sort of record for meandering banality" ; while the Radio Times called it a "passable thriller" with "more than a hint of The Third Man."
