Conflict - 1945 - 6/10

The spark ain’t there no more.
Besides, Richard is … ahem … in love with Kathryn’s younger sister. Of which Kathy is aware.

Overbaked Warners film boasts fine cast and superb photography.

Audiences of that era would have heard variations yearly on radio shows such as “Suspense,” “The Whistler,” and many others.
Loads of atmosphere, insufficient oomph.
