This is the word association that identified the killer, but was it Ruth or Terri who said it? The reflection of one’s self can open a door into the stable personality as well as the paranoid split personality. The doctor and detective used both their trade skills to arrive at the same conclusion. The last step was identifying who was who. Olivia De Havilland was outstanding in her dual performance. This is a gem of a film.
