“This is why I love So Evil My Love. One morning I was watching television and So Evil My Love came on. I had never heard of it. I was blown away. I knew Geraldine Fitzgerald and always was happy whenever a film of hers came on ... just because I was happy to know such a big star personally. And a lovely lady too. I have always been a fan of these film noir thrillers from childhood so it wasn't hard to get hooked. But I didn't realize how stunning I would find this film. The acting ... Geraldine Fitzgerald blew me away ... and Ann Todd is amazing and Ray Milland is stunning. The costumes are breathtaking to me. There is one scene in particular ... which I won't spoil for anyone ... almost made me cry it was so beautifully done. And the lighting. I couldn't believe how marvelous ... I mentioned a moment to Geraldine ... which I won't spoil for anyone ... but it made her happy that I loved the film so much ... And the story is fabulous ... intrigue , sex , blackmail , robbery, murder and false accusations. What else could you want? I even stole a plot point for my play Call Me Sarah Bernhardt. What a great morning that was for me.”
