"Wronged man" thriller in the Hitchcock mould
12 July 2018
Warning: Spoilers
THE WHOLE TRUTH is a solid Hollywood thriller in the Hitchcockian mould; namely it's a "wronged man" story with Stewart Granger at his charismatic/stressed out best as a womaniser whose latest conquest leads to disaster. This UK/USA co-production takes an awful long time to get going, trading on the charms of Italian starlet Gianna Maria Canale for a long while until the real plot kicks in. At that point we get a George Sanders at his most sinister, a great chase sequence, and the right level of suspense as Granger tries to extricate himself from an increasingly desperate situation.
