*Celebrating Marilyn Monroe’s 100th Birthday*
A lurid Technicolor thriller that brings sexual obsession and betrayal to the surface. Directed by Henry Hathaway, the film helped cement Marilyn Monroe’s star persona while also revealing the darker, more dangerous edge that made her such a magnetic screen presence. Set amid the roar of Niagara Falls, the film transforms one of America’s great honeymoon destinations into a landscape of jealousy and paranoia.
Rose Loomis (Monroe) and her older, gloomier husband, George (Joseph Cotten), are vacationing at a cabin in Niagara Falls, N.Y. The couple befriend Polly (Jean Peters) and Ray Cutler (Casey Adams), who are honeymooning in the area. Polly begins to suspect that something is amiss between Rose and George, and her suspicions grow when she sees Rose in the arms of another man. While Ray initially thinks Polly is overreacting, things between George and Rose soon take a shockingly dark turn.
