Two Great Performances Worth Watching, 23 October 2008

Diana Dors is terrific, absolutely sexy and a fine actress. She is a great Hitchcock femme fatale. It is surprising he never starred her in a film. John Gavin is great too. Considering how stiff he was in Spartacus and Psycho, this role is a revelation. Sometime between 1960 and 1962 when this was made, he must have learned to act. He actually seems relaxed and there's real chemistry between him and Dors. It is too bad Sean Connery came back to play James Bond instead of giving Gaven a chance. He might have been great. The story of a doomed love affair isn't much, but it does have a nice ironic and unexpected ending.
