趣闻
Torment is a 1950 British second feature thriller film directed and written by John Guillermin and starring Dermot Walsh, Rona Anderson and John Bentley.
Production
John Guillermin had made several films for Adelphi as a producer. One day, he saw an elaborate set being torn down and offered Adelphi that he would write a film in three weeks and shoot it in three weeks if he could use the set. They agreed. It did take Guillermin three weeks to write it but six weeks to film. He was paid £3,250.
According to one writer, it was with this film that "Guillermin's talent for clear, compact, efficient direction became evident: his tautly-shot thriller remains the strongest crime drama in the Adelphi catalogue."
Dermot Walsh says that during filming, an electrician fell twenty feet from railing down to the floor "but Guillermin wouldn't hold up production, he just went on shooting."
