No intro and no outro, but, whether, A Woman's Vengeance or In The Grip of Lies, no matter what the title is this movie was made for all times. It's ageless, Jessica Tandy, Charles Boyer and a very young, Ann Blyth ( now 95 years ) how marvelous this cast of characters.

[@willieluncheonette5843]

A Woman's Vengeance is a 1948 American film noir drama mystery film directed by Zoltán Korda and starring Charles Boyer, Ann Blyth, Jessica Tandy, Cedric Hardwicke, Rachel Kempson, and Mildred Natwick. The screenplay by Aldous Huxley was based on his 1922 novelette "The Gioconda Smile".

[@elizabethcsicsery-ronay1633]

Why couldn't they have told us this from the outset.

[@willieluncheonette5843]

@@elizabethcsicsery-ronay1633 It has to do with copyright issues. That is why the opening credits and film title had to be cut out.

[@elizabethcsicsery-ronay1633]

@@willieluncheonette5843That really is ridiculous. Thanks for telling me.

[@willieluncheonette5843]

@@elizabethcsicsery-ronay1633 Yes, but at least you got to see the film. The copyright is to protect the owner of the film. What would you think if someone filmed Oppenheimer in a theater and put it up on KZbin so all could watch it? That would mean no one involved in the film would ever get a decent chunk of money again since everyone could now see it for free. With some of these old films, it is not much different. They are still being shown in revival houses and make money off that.

[@Lorraine3033]

No wonder I could not find the cast anywhere. This movie is named incorrectly?

[@user-pl6wk3wg6d]

Cecil Hardwicke's voice was the most remarkable feature of this movie; he gave life to Aldous Huxley's brillant lines. His vocal resonance was on the same par as that of George Sanders. This classic was seen years ago but still hasn't lost it's magic. An excellent cast and a 'compelling' story-line. In other words "they don't make them like that anymore"!!!

This is the film A WOMAN'S VENGENCE directed by Zoltan Korda 1948 based on the story by Aldous Huxley titled THE GIOCONDA SMILE. Apparently now with a copyright lapse and a new title with no opening credits one can blithly pedal other people's work and performances without assigning authorship or creative construction. Fortunately it is an otherwise flawless reproduction of a little appreciated gem. It features Jessica Tandy in a performance that radiates the artistry she would shortly bring to the role of Blanche in STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE. Ann Blyth is fresh and dewey in a role very different from Veda in MILDRED PIERCE. Also the fine acting of Mildred Natwick, Rachel Kempson and Cedric Hardwick. Just great

Disturbing on so many levels😲. Charles Boyer is charismatic and sexy as ever even at this age. Seeing the reciprocated warmth between him and Janet in the beginning seemed absolutely right and my heart wanted him to be with her and not his vengeful insecure wife. But when he married an EMBRYO🙄 who generally looked and acted like his DAUGHTER, I was squirming in my seat😤. I wanted to fast forward thru every one of their scenes together. Charles was wonderful but it was easy to see how uncomfortable he was. Charles and the actress who played Janet and also of course the good doctor who saves the day gave fantastic performances.
