Review

A star rating of 2 out of 5.

Allen Eyles

It took a female director, Ida Lupino, to make a film centred directly on the provocative subject of rape (although the word itself could not be used). Lupino's main concern is with the aftermath - the victim, well played by newcomer Mala Powers, feels so "dirty" that she runs away to start a new life. As the co-writer and production partner as well as the director, Lupino avoids obvious sensationalism. However, Tod Andrews's preacher, who helps the young woman overcome her trauma, seems too good to be true and the film is too concentrated on a single issue.
