Cast a Dark Shadow (1955)


Margaret Lockwood and Dirk Bogarde in Cast a Dark Shadow (1955)

Edward "Teddy" Bare is a delusional psychotic with a lust for wealth, older women and murder. Having committed what he thinks is the perfect murder of his elderly wife; Teddy sets his sights on new targets when her fortune goes elsewhere.

Margaret Lockwood's once-considerable popularity as a leading lady was waning noticeably when she appeared in this movie. She hoped it would revive her movie career, and she received outstanding personal reviews. However, the movie was a box-office flop, and she made only one more movie in her life, The Slipper and the Rose: The Story of Cinderella (1976).
