Review of Whirlpool (1950) by Suzy P — 14 Jun 2008
If you can put your "Laura" expectations aside, you'll enjoy this little noir thriller. Radiant Gene Tierney stars as the wife of a psychoanalyst who falls into the clutches of a hypnotist when he learns of her propensity for shoplifting.
Rosemary Clooney's husband, Jose Ferrer, stars as the scheming hypnotist, and look for Scarlett O'Hara's mother (Barbara O'Neil) as one of his victims. Tierney is beautiful and vulnerable in her fab Oleg Cassini wardrobe.
Not a masterpiece, but enjoyable.
