Orson Welles was an avowed fan of William Castle’s B-noir classic, which packs careful suspense and shocking surprise into its taut sixty-seven minute story of a new bride united with the man she may, or may not, have married. When Strangers Marry offered an early role for a radiantly young Kim Hunter, whose wanderings through a haunted city of beckoning signs and darkened rooms suggest a kind of noir “Alice in Underworld.”
