bluebeard (1944)


"What would Bluebeard want with me?"
A serial killer of women is on the loose in Paris, and all women are on their guard. Whilst everyone tries to descern who the killer is Lucille (Jean Parker) is introduced to Gaston Morrell (John Carradine), a puppeteer and painter. She is taken with him, and him her, and they strike up a relationship, and he tells her he is giving up painting. But why would he give up his livelihood?
Carridine gives a sterling performance, unfortunately its in a poverty row production, which cannot live up to his acting.
