Gothic auteur John Brahm crafted one of the most intricate flashback structures in noir history in this feverish vision of masochistic amour fou. Robert Mitchum is just one of the sacrificial victims strewn along the crooked path toward madness cut by the bewitching and almost childlike Laraine Day. The Locket is an important expression of the current of pop psychoanalysis that runs through post-WWII Hollywood.
