A Good Romantic Crime Thriller
"Love from a Stranger" (original title) AKA "A Night of Terror" (1937). Basil Rathbone goes insane, Ann Harding falls in-love - and I loved every minute of the film. This one is a good crime thriller based on a romance - great climax!
Carol Howard seems to be one lucky but highly naive woman - she wins the lottery but ends up loosing her childhood sweetheart Ronald Bruce due to the money going to her head Ronald felt, besides he wanted to be the one to get her out of the slums and to marry her. Carol wants to take her money and go on a trip to France with her best friend Kate Meadows and Aunt Lou. She wants to someone in her flat while she's away and a man arrives to take over the place - Gerald Lovell. Carol and her friends board a ship to set sail and she bumps into Gerald Lovell who starts wooing her. Carol and Gerald marry much to the dismay of Ronald Bruce. The newlyweds buy a home and move in - that's when Carol starts seeing Gerald's true colors.
8.5/10
