IVY - LE

(Sam Wood, 1947, 99 mins)
Limited Edition Blu-ray (UK premiere)

Joan Fontaine (Kiss the Blood Off My Hands), Patric Knowles (The Wolf Man), and Herbert Marshall (Blonde Venus) star in Ivy, a classic thriller from director Sam Wood (A Night at the Opera).

When she meets the handsome and wealthy Miles Rushworth (Marshall), gold-digging Ivy (Fontaine) will stop at nothing to get her hands on him, including murdering her husband (Richard Ney, Mrs. Miniver) and framing her lover (Knowles) for the crime. But Inspector Orpington (Cedric Hardwicke, A Woman’s Vengeance) has his suspicions...

Scripted by Alfred Hitchcock collaborator and Night of the Demon co-writer Charles Bennett, photographed by the great Russell Metty (All My Sons), and produced by legendary production designer William Cameron Menzies (Gone with the Wind), Ivy is a stylish crime melodrama.
