Phyllis Calvert ("Maddalena") is attacked whilst walking through the forest. A substantial side-effect of this trauma is that she develops a split-personality. On one hand, she is a respectably married lady who has a daughter at boarding school; on the other, a sultry gypsy very much in love with the swarthy Stewart Granger ("Nino"). It's a rather daft melodrama that darts about a bit, but it has a sinister eeriness to it, the story is oddly compelling and the production is of quite a decent enough standard to allow both stars to work well together alongside Patricia Roc ("Angela") as the romance interweaves with something entirely more mysterious. Maybe neither lead's best performance (of 1945), but still worth a watch - just give it a chance to get going.

You've reached the end.
