Otto Preminger directs this celebrated film noir based on Vera Caspary's novel and starring Dana Andrews and Gene Tierney. Detective Mark McPherson (Andrews) investigates the apparent murder of the beautiful Laura (Tierney) and finds himself falling in love with the deceased woman. He is not the only one with affections for the mysterious Laura, however, and as McPherson attempts to wheedle out the truth behind the cover stories of her mentor, Waldo (Clifton Webb), her fiancé, Shelby (Vincent Price), and her housekeeper, Bessie (Dorothy Adams), another suspect shows up...

This silky smooth film noir pits gruff police detective Dana Andrews, stiff and blunt in his street-bred manners, against a cultured columnist and acidic wit (Clifton Webb at his prissiest) in a battle of wits during a murder investigation. The cop is a romantic hiding under a hard-boiled exterior who falls in love with the beautiful victim through the portrait that hangs in her apartment. Gene Tierney, whose heart-shaped face mixes the exotic with the girl next door, brings the poise and calm of a model to her role as the object of every man's gaze and the target of a killer. Laura, handsomely shot in dreamy black and white, is the first and best of Otto Preminger's cool, controlled murder mysteries. In the gritty world of film noir it remains the most refined and elegant example of the genre, but under the tasteful decor and high-society fashions lies a world seething in jealousy, passion, blackmail, and murder. Vincent Price co-stars as a blithe gigolo and David Raksin's lush theme has become a wistful romantic standard.
