Reviews for The 13th Letter
While not nearly as good as the original, Henri-George Clouzot's Le Corbeau, Preminger's film does have some power and a great deal of suspense.
Well-made and with an offbeat location site, film is an interesting account of the effects of poison pen letters on a small Quebec village.
Though not a complete failure, Preminger's American version still managed to take most of the starch out of this bitter French chiller.
