I've just purchased a copy of Chase a Crooked Shadow on video and found it very gripping and was surprised by the end.
A complete stranger turns up a at a woman's home claiming to be her brother. But her brother is dead, but he still claims he his. Nobody believes he isn't her brother, including her uncle. She does eventually get a police chief to believe her but at the end, he turns on her and we find out who this man really is and the "new" staff at her mansion really are and what they want from her...
The movie has some nice scenery and a rather haunting score.
The cast includes Richard Todd (The Story of Robin Hood, The Dam Busters), Anne Baxter (I Confess), Herbert Lom (North West Frontier, Mysterious Island) and Alexander Knox. Excellent parts from all. This movie was produced by actor Douglas Fairbanks Jr.
Chase a Crooked Shadow is worth catching if you get the chance. Excellent.
Rating: 4 stars out of 5.
