THE TWO MRS. CARROLLS
1947
The second of three film collaborations between director Peter Godfrey and Barbara Stanwyck.
The film contains brilliant performances by Bogart and Barbara Stanwyck, a great deal of eerie suspense, and delicious bits of British humour.
Film Noir at its best!
PLOT
Geoffrey Carroll, a struggling artist, marries Sally after his first wife (an invalid) dies. Life is normal at first until Sally begins feeling unwell and restless. Her doctor says she's suffering from nothing more than a nervous condition, and that's what she believes at first. However, she later learns from Geoffrey's precocious young daughter Bea, that Geoffrey's first wife was not an invalid and only got sick during the last few weeks of her life. She also learns that a painting of his former wife, called "The Angel of Death", was done during those last few weeks, and now he wants to paint her too...
