🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its adventurous plot on a contrast of appearances and a double game of identities, relying on dynamic shifts in circumstance and the tense anticipation of exposure.

What lingers after viewing is the pleasure of an old-fashioned puzzle of disguises, where every character is ultimately not who they seem. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: William K. Howard
