The standout scene involves the priests' lover, Anne Baxter, recollecting the moments they spent together during and after the second world war. The use of locations in this film are particularly stunning up un... read more

Since I'm a huge fan of Alfred Hitchcock, I was really eager to check this flick. Basically, it is one of his most obscure movies and, to be honest, it was indeed not one of his best flicks but I still enjoyed it anyway.

"Monty Cliftin esittämä pappi kuulee rippituolissa murhatunnustuksen. Murhamies sattuu olemaan seurakunnan talkkari, joka kaiken huipuksi naamioitui papin kasukkaan murhailtana liikuskellessaan. Aina niin miellyttävän Karl Maldenin poliisimies osaa Occamin partaveitsensä ja alkaa kuumottelemaan pappia, jota sitoo rippisalaisuus. Tästä seuraava eettinen painiskelu on korkeintaan viitteellistä, mukana on kuin ajantäyttönä kummallinen romanttinen sivujuonne eikä loppuratkaisu yllätä E"
