This was a great radio play with Agnes Moorehead but I think it was also a terrific movie with Barbara Stanwyck, and not too bad a TV remake in 1989 either. Definitely creepy, especially towards the end. Anybody else seen it?

Don't think I ever saw the remake but I liked the original.

I saw the movie a while back, but I don't think I watched it all the way through and don't remember too much about it! It's a movie that didn't leave a great impression on me. Barbara Stanwyck and Burt Lancaster are two of my favorites though, but this film just didn't work for me.

I don't recall ever seeing the movie but we read the play or script in HS.

Is that the movie where they guy was going to have his wife killed and then at the last minute he tried to stop it but he was too late?? I am sure I saw it, the original one.

Yeah, that was the one. What's funny is when I first saw it, it was advertised as 'a bedridden woman overhears plans for her own destruction', so I figured she knew she was going to be killed, but she didn't find that out until the last few minutes.

It's kind of funny how first, I think it was first anyway, this started out as originally a very short play, and then later it was extended into a full form novella which in fact I found in the back of an Alfred Hitchcock anthology, and the latter is more like the movie whereas the former is more like the radio broadcast.
