Heightened emotion and nagging banal reality fight each other for screen space, doing final battle in a daringly ambiguous ending.

Cassavetes and Rowlands lend a screwball energy to this thriller, ably playing conflicting moods of suspense and silliness off each other to complicate an otherwise straightforward genre film.
