An excellent movie which I've seen many times, every time with great pleasure. Peter van Eyck and Mandy Miller achieve two exceptional roles as the criminal stepfather and the sensitive and intelligent daughter. Guy Green did a really good job directing this movie. Smart cinematography by Jack Asher. The music by Francis Chagrin very appropriate. A little masterpiece. Made in 1958, the year I was born, but who resisted the test of time very well.
