Plots(1)
Set against the dramatic backdrop of Niagara Falls, Marilyn Monroe portrays Rose, a femme fatale possessing two of the most powerful weapons: an erotic body and an evil mind. Planning to murder her troubled husband (Joseph Cotton), rose first uses her double edged sword to drive him t the brink of total insanity. Then she seductively torments a series of stranger while her mysterious lover waits in the shadows. Vastily different from her often comedic roles. (official distributor synopsis)
