Leave Her to Heaven

US (1945): Romance/Crime/Drama/Film-Noir

Gene Tierney positively eats the camera in this darkly beautiful Technicolor^© portrait of a pathologically possessive wife who will do whatever she has to to keep her husband all to herself, even from beyond the grave. Worth watching just for Tierney's scary, neurotic beauty. Adapted from the novel by Ben Ames. John M. Stahl directs a cast that includes Cornel Wilde, Jeanne Crain, Vincent Price, Mary Philips, Ray Collins, Gene Lockhart, Reed Hadley, Darryl Hickman and Chill Wills. (20th Century-Fox) (amctv.com)
