Alfred Hitchcock Presents: Salvage (1955) (TV)

Synopsis: A woman faces up with the revenge urge of a man whose brother's death she ultimately caused.

Appraisal: Although its ending is predictable about halfway into it, this is remarkable in some aspects; the sheer precision and intensity of the direction, which features some stunning close-ups, is quite outstanding; the performances are also very good, particularly the leading actor's. While its plot is practically the telling of a joke, it is competently developed.
