First, some (brief!) backstory: I’ve long had seemingly unmemorable movie scenes (and quotations) stick in my head, for reasons that I’m not even sure of. One of them, oddly enough, is the scene where Philip Lombard (Louis Hayward) goes to Vera Claythorne’s (the gorgeous June Duprez’s) window in And Then There Were None (1945).
Now, I just watched the scene on YouTube (the movie’s great, by the way—one of the best whodunit flicks ever made, and by far the best adaptation of the Agatha Christie book). There is nothing whatsoever spooky about the scene. Yet from time to time, ever since I first saw the movie as a kid, the scene randomly pops into my head, and every time I get kind of a spooky feeling about it.
While this may seem like a matter to talk over with the shrink after the coronavirus pandemic has ended, I’ve gotten to wondering if it’s not actually ATTWN I’m remembering.
So, basically, what I’m asking is, is there a scene in a different movie in which the hero crawls over to the heroine’s balcony and comes in through the window? (That sounds weird; she opens the window for him, it’s not like he’s been creepily staring at her or anything. That would have explained my spooky feeling, but no such, er, “luck.”)
