Midnight Lace (1960) 【95% WORKING】

is a psychological thriller that stars Doris Day in a rare dramatic turn as Kit Preston, an American heiress living in London who is terrorized by a mysterious stalker. Directed by David Miller , the film is frequently compared to the works of Alfred Hitchcock for its "damsel in distress" themes and suspenseful atmosphere. Plot Summary

Set against a foggy London backdrop, newlywed Kit Preston begins receiving anonymous, high-pitched threats over the phone and in person. As the terror escalates, her husband, Anthony "Tony" Preston (Rex Harrison), and the authorities grow skeptical, eventually questioning her sanity and suggesting she is merely a neglected wife seeking attention. This lack of belief pushes Kit toward a nervous breakdown as she struggles to prove the danger is real before the month's end. Midnight Lace (1960)
