Good dramatic 'dry' Esther Williams performance!

Esther Williams, known mainly for the musicals that were contrived to display her swimming talents, gave a very good straight dramatic performance in this picture as a high-school teacher who's being stalked by an obsessed student. Of course, today, it would be the other way around!

Haven't seen it in a long time, but I remember that she was good, and the tension was strong.
