Miscast but good movie overall
The story and the movie are (almost) great. Almost great because it is difficult to imagine Joan Fontaine more attractive than the wonderful Joan Leslie, which is perfectly classy and charming here. Moreover Joan Fontaine always seems to smile in every scene like if her smile was artificially frozen.Aside this miscast (Joan Leslie should have been cast as Christabel), every part of the movie is great, with the usual excellent performance from Robert Ryan.
score 8/10
