#217 Melodrama with a capital M. Has its moments but drags a lot.

Surprised this isn’t talked about more in Hitchcocks early filmography. An engaging love triangle with an absolutely fantastic performance from Anny Ondra

Finally after a few dull affairs, this one was actually a bit interesting with a bit of tonal changes and frankly not totally certainly where it was going to end.
