Where the Truth Lies (1962)
Directed by Henri Decoin
Quick Hit
Where the Truth Lies either bites hard or fizzles out; this one lands comfortably above water. Not flawless, but it gets the job done.
Full Take
There’s a real hook here, but the follow-through decides the damage. The craft is either locked in or hanging by a thread, and this movie knows it. Once the mood is set, everything comes down to whether the film can cash in its own setup. The set pieces are what matter, and this one gets some mileage out of them. That’s why it lands at SOLID.
