Editorial Reviews

Disney produced this distilled Hitchcockian suspense yarn, diluted for the consumption of children. Hayley Mills stars as Nikky Ferris who is spending time in Crete at a small inn called The Moon-Spinners with her Aunt Frances (Joan Greenwood). One day Nikky discovers a handsome young man, Mark Camford (Peter McEnery), wounded in an empty church nearby. It turns out that Mark was once a London bank messenger, but he lost his job after a major jewel robbery. Tagged as a suspect, Mark has made his way to the inn to gather evidence against the inn's owner, Stratos (Eli Wallach), who Mark thinks is the real jewel thief. Nikky and Mark fall in love and decide to capture Stratos together. Silent screen vamp Pola Negri makes a luminous appearance as a jewelry aficionado. Paul Brenner, All Movie Guide

Not the best movie I've ever seenby Anonymous

July 04, 2009: This movie is pretty silly. Unrealistic, slightly exciting, but most of the time you are just waiting for the movie to end so you can go do something else.

A wonderful movie from the pastby Anonymous

April 21, 2009: I grew up watching and loving Haley Mills. This movie was on television on rare occasions, maybe once a year. I loved it the first time I saw it. When I watched it with my 12 year old granddaughter recently, it still held all its charm. The story is exciting if not a little unrealistic. I find the character Haley Mills plays wonderfully naive and sweet. What a refreshing change from all the snotty teenage characters who are so prevalent in this day.
