Michael Curtiz was a great director; and he made other great films besides Casablanca. This was one of them. The use of shadows and blocking was absolutely perfect. The music is moody, and the story line is mesmerizing. His character is positively diabolical. Rains excelled in these kinds of roles and was only rivaled by the great George Sanders for his debonair screen presence. The clever twists and turns of this film will have you wiggling in your seat with suspense. Be sure to view it at night.
