A Blueprint for Murder (1953)

Director: Andrew L Stone
Starring: Joseph Cotten, Jean Peters, Gary Merrill

Synopsis:
A man begins to suspect his sister-in-law in the death of his brother and niece and fears for the life of his nephew.

Impressions:
I'll admit, I found this movie to be rather humdrum until the climax. The basic idea is interesting enough, but I didn't quite feel the tension I was hoping for until the third act, when everything is finally put on the line. Honestly, if the finale wasn't as good as it was, I'd rate it lower. For a decent murder mystery that ends strong, give this one a watch.
