    This is one of my favorite Glenn Ford movies. The director keeps the suspense building as we never really see the face of the suspect until the end of the movie. Lee Remick is very convincing as the victimized bank teller who's trying to help catch her sister's kidnapper. If you like old classics, you can't beat this one. It's a must-see for older suspense movie diehards.
