Review

USA Today, 03/12/1993, p.3D, ...This all-timer made a standard of the title tune, launched co-star Clifton Webb's screen career....[and] it also gives Vincent Price and Judith Anderson meaty suspect roles..."

Chicago Sun-Times, 01/20/2002, p.5, "...That LAURA continues to weave a spell -- and it does -- is a tribute to style over sanity....The music lends a haunted, nostalgic, regretful cast to everything it plays under..."

Entertainment Weekly, 03/18/2005, p.50, "[T]he whodunit still gleams like a pearl-handled pistol..."

Los Angeles Times, 04/03/2005, p.E15, "[A] delectable romantic thriller..."

Sight and Sound, 04/01/2006, p.90, "Preminger's waspish masterpiece, which swings from high society noir to romantic mystery two thirds of the way through."

Product Notes

A classic noirish mystery with a consummate ensemble of actors. Dana Andrews adroitly plays the detective who delves into the murder of the stunningly beautiful Laura, with whom it seems everyone, including the detective himself, is in love. But Webb steals the show as the titular ingenue's creepily elegant social mentor, Waldo Lydecker. Based on the novel by Vera Caspary. Academy Award Nominations: 4, including Best Director. Academy Awards: Best (Black-and-White) Cinematography.
