The crowd scenes impress and it never looks less than fabulous. Script adapt . A blackmailer goes to work. She's easy prey, particularly since her boyfriend is high up in Scotland Yard. Anny Ondra had such a strong European accent she had to mime to Joan Barry standing just off camera.
Script adapt .
Valerie Hobson is the titular governess in this melodrama that's as lurid as its Technicolor. Michael Gough is the wimpy single parent, Stewart Granger the family bastard. She marries the first but fancies the second. The production design is stunning - the script less so. Hardy Kruger gets involved with a married woman.
