Midnight Lace is a 1960 Ross Hunter-produced US crime film set in London which gave Doris Day her last, and best, serious dramatic role. It's almost a proto-giallo, but with echoes of GASLIGHT. A top-notch mystery/suspense/psychological thriller.

All That Heaven Allows (1955), a glorious melodrama directed by Douglas Sirk and produced by Ross Hunter. Middle-aged widow Jane Wyman falls in love with her gardener (Rock Hudson).

Melodrama has always been despised by critics but I enjoy it, and this one has class.
