Oddball entry even for TZ. I couldn't figure out where the story was going until the last when the murky parts come together. It's a challenging, different kind of screenplay. Seems kookie Hollywood ingénue Bunny Blake (McNamara) gets a ring that gives her cloudy instructions. So instead of going on movie location, she flies to her hometown since the ring says she's needed there. But why, since everything seems normal, including her sister, nephew and townspeople. Besides, her ditzy manner suggests she's just showing off her celebrity status. Still, the ring must make some sense otherwise why does she keep following its pointers.
The entry may require patience since there's no real suspense or drama. For me, I stuck with it because of Bunny's tight dress and whimsical manner. Too bad the talented McNamara had such a short, tragic career; she really didn't need Audrey Hepburn comparisons. And I agree with the reviewer who found Bunny's relationship with sister Hildy (Munday) uncommonly winning. Anyhow, Hamner's screenplay combines somewhat familiar element of prophecy into an unusually effective payoff. So, even if doubts pop up, stick with it to the eerie end.
