SYNOPSIS:A definitive film noir classic, Laura tells the shocking story of a Park Avenue society beauty murdered in her apartment, which brings Detective Mark McPherson (Dana Andrews) to New York's most elegant neighborhood. As he tries to get inside the head of the victim, Laura Hunt (Gene Tierney), he also questions the men in her life - the acerbic critic Waldo Lydecker (Clifton Webb) and playboy fiancee Shelby Carpenter (Vincent Price).
Lulled by her stunning portrait, fine liquor and classical music, McPherson doesn't know he's in for a heart-stopping shock with the sudden appearance of a woman who seems to be Laura herself. Steeped in suspense, heightened reality and witty sophistication, Laura leads to a shocking climax.

There are 1 reviews for this movie |
 | Robert S. | | Remade in other times, nothing matches this because we don't have another Gene Tierney, another Vincent Price, another Clifton Webb. Irreplaceable trio bounce off of Detective Dana Andrews in my favorite performance of his. And perhaps this is my favorite performance by those other 3, as well - or almost. So many great ones, and this one is another great example. |
