LEGEND. After 21 years of marriage, my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner and a movie.
â This is a line from the 1943 classic Alfred Hitchcock thriller, Shadow of a Doubt, and THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOW, in more ways than one, pays homage to the venerable master of suspense. Anna Fox is a recently separated woman living alone in her restored Harlem brownstone.
Fritz Lang's The Woman in the Window is a reasonably good but second-rate film noir, starring Edward G. Robinson and Joan Bennett. It's hard to believe that the same man directed this and 1927's Metropolis. The Woman in the Window isn't terrible, but it almost completely lacks ingenuity.
