Always loved this film, hard to believe it was a box office disappointment at the time.
After watching THE GIRL on HBO, I had to post it. What a creepy movie. Both actually.
Patti - What a deliciously creepy story. But then, I'm a Hitchcock person...
I liked the movie quite a bit. The story is also awesome.
Yes, Du Maurier is a terrific writer.
When I first saw this picture, in a theater as a little kid, I recognized many of the cast names from TV.
Looking at that list now, I wonder how they arrived at (pardon the expression) the pecking order that we see.
Here's a fun test: look at that list of actors and see how many of them you can match up with the characters they played.
Even I didn't score 100% ...
(No peeking at IMDb!)
