One of the most under-rated films of memory, although it was reviewed favoribly by the critics at the time. Like Spencer Tracy, and others Edward g. Robinson was one of Hollywoods' greatest. One brings to mind, the great movie ,Key largo, along side Bogart. Film noir, here but for once one not so dark, both in scope and in it's ending which is also a "twist". It's a great story complete with an older man getting in a mix with the proverbial dame during a course a course of a nightly nightmare beyond scope and measure. In other words he gets in hot water fast, and the dame needs his help to get rid of the body. Then the fun begins untill it's ending with becomes an ending within an ending. I saw it for the 2nd time recently, and have now ordered it as a keeper,it is that good.
Fritz Lang's THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOW, though hardly propelled by a credible plot, is nonetheless a completely professional, technically proficient film noir with engaging acting, particularly by Edward G. Robinson as the feckless professor of psychology and Raymond Massey as a dogged public prosecutor. Despite a lack of special features, the dvd release of the film offers an eminently watchable entertainment highly recommended for anyone seeking an unusual approach to film noir plotting.

This is a very entertaining, classic movie. It concerns the fantasies of older, married men. In this film one of those fantasies spins completely out of control and turns into a nightmare. The object of all that is a painting of a beautiful, young woman in the window of a storefront. Edward G. Robinson becomes enchanted in more ways than one and the adventure begins. This one is definitely worth adding to a great film library.
