A chilling film noir like no other, Gene Tierney stars as Ellen Berent, a beautiful and possessive woman whose overly dependent love for her husband turns increasingly sinister. Shot in gorgeous technicolor by director John M. Stahl and DP Leon Shamroy (winner of the Academy Award for Best Color Cinematography), Leave Her to Heaven became 20th Century Fox’s highest-grossing film of the 1940’s. At the rotten center is an Oscar-nominated performance from Tierney, playing the rare femme fatale who isn’t motivated by all-American greed and ambition, but instead is consumed by obsession, jealousy, and deadly devotion.
