Writers: James Bridie, Hume Cronyn, Helen Simpson, John Colton, Margaret Linden
Cinematographer: Jack Cardiff
Composer: Richard Addinsell
Cast: Ingrid Bergman, Joseph Cotton, Michael Wilding, Margaret Leighton, Cecil Parker
Hitchcock’s portentous period drama, depicting a love tug of war between Cotton’s angry ex-con and Wilding’s happy-go-lucky, Irish aristocrat over Bergman’s weepy, perma-drunk, fallen lady in 19th Century Australia, is a hammy, melodramatic mess of a movie that lacks any of the qualities that make up his best work.
