Stewart Granger and Jean Simmons star in this compelling thriller set in the fog-shrouded streets of Victorian London. As he buries his wife in a rain-soaked London churchyard, Stephen Lowry (Stewart Granger) thinks he has committed the perfect murder. He's wrong. His quick-witted young maid Lily (Jean Simmons) knows that he secretly poisoned his wife - and she has the proof. Now, as the price of her silence, she wants her mistresses' jewels, her mistresses' fine dresses and - most of all - her master himself. Can Stephen give Lily the love she craves? Can she trust a man who has already murdered once? As Stephen begins to court another woman, the thick London fog suddenly echoes to the cries of 'murder!' Featuring real life husband and wife Stewart Granger and Jean Simmons at the height of their international stardom and now available on DVD for the very first time, Footsteps In the Fog is a first rate murder thriller with shocking twists that will keep you guessing until the very last moments.

Good old-fashioned melodrama
This may be an old film but it was an excellent example of a well-crafted drama that kept one guessing until the end. My only criticism is the over-use of loud ... read more »
