This is certainly one of Lewton's better efforts (and I've seen damn near all of them). Agreed on Tournieur being his best director, something about the two just made them well suited. I always felt an amateurish quality watching Wise or Robson's films with him. This is actually the film vaugest in my mind however, but I do remember enjoying it, and anything is better than Ghost Ship or Curse of the Cat People.
