La donna del ritratto (1944) in streaming su altadefinizione Un docente di criminologia cena presso il suo club. Ha ammirato in una vetrina un quadro raffigurante una bellissima donna e questa – di cui nulla conosce – entra in un suo sogno, dapprima piacevole (la loro relazione sentimentale), ma che si trasforma poi in un autentico incubo. Fritz Lang, il regista, uno fra i celebri transfughi dalla Germania nazista, realizzò negli Stati Uniti film di alterno valore. Questo è uno dei suoi più riusciti, per la complessità dei temi affrontati, per la ricerca di un adeguato stile narrativo e per il notevole apporto degli interpreti, tutti attori di ottimo mestiere molto abilmente guidati in ruoli impegnativi.
