Director: Wise

Review

robert wise directs. it’s got a bit of citizen kane in the beginning (wise was the editor) and a bit of the haunting (directed by wise) and rebecca in the middle. it’s about a polish lady who assumes the identity of her prisoner of war friend who has a rich aunt in america. ends up marrying the benefactor of the estate and things get weird. it’s a good movie with some good direction. the comeuppance in the end is a good one.
