My first experience with a Val Lewton film. The metaphorical implications are intriguing (as in The Devil and Daniel Webster, Simone Simon is a vessel for our xenophobina), but if you're just watching this for fun, it can be dull. It's a short movie, but it still takes quite a while to get to "the good stuff". There's a lot of build-up, but Tourneur does what he can to make it interesting, especially in the noir-style lighting.
