The film begins in the southern California home of Alexander MacAllister (Lawson Butt) where he is confronting Andrew Hyde (Miles McCarthy) who is accused of crooked dealings.

They are interrupted by an unexpected caller on that rainy evening, a young lady, Jean Ogilvie, the daughter of a Scotsman family friend from Mexico.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its drama from the clash between a threat of financial exposure and the arrival of a mysterious visitor whose appearance raises doubts. It relies on the atmosphere of a rainy evening to amplify the characters' isolation and hidden intentions.

What lingers after viewing is a classic tale of secrets and first impressions, where the past intrudes upon the present in the most unexpected ways. — MovieFinder Editorial
