An incredibly well-written movie with cynically insightful eyes. While it's hard to detach Coleman from his "Zenda" sex-symbol status and see him as a great actor, he does his job admirably, deserving every inch of the Academy Award he won for his work on this movie. The Othello scenes both onstage and off are well done and extremely spooky. This is really more of a Gothic thriller than film noir, and it fits well into the pantheon of Universal horror films. Absolutely worth a watch, but leave yourself time for reflection afterward, as it's very emotionally involving.

What a dreadful, weird, bleak movie. A famous stage actor becomes obsessed with his Othello role and not only almost kills his ex-wife/current lover/co-star on stage mid-performance, but he then goes into a trance and actually does kill (with a strangulating "kiss of death") a blonde floozy who waited on him once at an Italian restaurant, in her bed, in the middle of the night. When he realizes, again mid-performance, that he's been found out, he kills himself on stage, rather than merely pretending to do so.

Colman gives one of his greatest performances of his career and won an Academy Award as a Shakesperean actor whose off stage life imitates his theater role of Othello where he kills a woman he believes to be Desdemona. Electrifying suspense, laced with crackling dialogue and melodrama. Winters, in one of her earliest roles, is divine as the victim of Colman's madness. This film gives new meaning to the phrase "disappearing into a character."

Magnificent dark sudy of the dark side of acting and a fine early example of filming the stage. Multi-layerd and insightful use of language, editing and sound to create a portrait of a man disintegrating into a vacuum. INtersting to note how the "real" version of the story is more filmic than the theatrical one. Although momentum is lost a bit as the police investigation starts, the darkness and depth is never lost

Ronald Colman is stand-out in what is a very good psychological drama which examines schizonphrenia through a watchable and entertaining storyline.
