Cinema: The New Pictures, Nov. 7, 1955
(4 of 4)
This picture, billed as Evelyn's life story (Fox arranged to pay her $45,000 as a consultant), plays a little fast with the loose facts. White (acted with worldly hauteur by Ray Milland) is presented as a high-minded fellow who loved Evelyn dearly, but could not bear to hurt his wife. Evelyn, who could scarcely have been prettier than Joan Collins makes her look, is made out to be as pure as the driven snow, at least in her intentions, even after that unfortunate Thaw (Farley Granger) had set in. Still the fiction is not much less exciting than the fact, and thanks partly to a magnificent $1,600,000 production in CinemaScope and DeLuxe color, it looks like the inside of a Fifth Avenue chippy's dream.
