    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      According to an August 1946 Hollywood Reporter news item, Eleanor Parker was given her dual role in this film after she was suspended for refusing to appear in Warner Bros.' Love and Learn (1947).
    • Goofs
      The first time Ann visits Laura in her sick bed (a composite shot, as Eleanor Parker is playing both roles), her shadow is visible on the headboard. Her shadow is not synced with her head movements while talking; it rises and moves away moments before Ann herself does. Apparently, the attempt to 'imitate' Ann's shadow on Laura's half of the shot didn't quite get the timing right.
    • Quotes
      • Count Alessandro Fosco: Your proposal doesn't surprise me. Like a good general, you admit defeat when it's a fact. You're bold, you're logical. My dear, you're immensely tempting.
      • Marian Halcombe: Please Count Fosco, can you not say yes or no?
      • Count Alessandro Fosco: Let me see then. You suggest I take my ill got gains, free and then abandon my precious wife.
      • Marian Halcombe: Precious? The day you do so will be the day of her deliverance.
