I See a Dark Stranger (1946)
After a movie like this, it’s no wonder Deborah Kerr became a big star! She was nominated for five Best Actress Oscars in eleven years, and while she played in small parts during the early 1940s, I See a Dark Stranger helped propel her to stardom and the first of her nominations in 1949’s Edward, My Son.
Deborah plays a young Irish woman born and raised in a slightly dated environment. While England and Ireland have mended their rift, she still has a strong fighting spirit within her, and when she comes of age, she tries to enlist in the Irish Republican Army. She’s turned down, but shortly afterwards is approached by Raymond Huntley to become a secret agent spy! Deborah is a force to be reckoned with, as she plots and fights for love of her country, improvising when plans go awry and proving she can give as good as she gets! What’s a young spy to do when Trevor Howard falls in love with her and won’t let her out of his sight?
Deborah Kerr does a very good job and keeps the film’s plot alive with her high energy. I can imagine other actresses letting the script fall flat, or boring the audience with the internal monologues. If you like girl-power movies, you’ll want to rent this obscure old movie during a girls’ night with your friends. There’s nothing too scary about it, and there’s a little bit of romance that adds to the plot.
