Susan Hayward is excellent as always and found a rugged leading man in 20th Cenetury Fox contract star Stephen Boyd.
This was a 20th Century Fox film but as I recall 20th touted the pic as the first one of Ms. Hayward that was released after her win for UA I Want To Live, and carried banner ads for the picture stating this fact.
I thought Hayward was very good, but Boyd was excellent. My only complaint was that the ending, starting from where Fred fell into the mud-pit, was rushed a bit and therefore seemed a little false.
I also thought it would be more appropriately titled MAN OBSESSED, but that probably would have left Hayward fans and other women disinterested.

Boyd's character kept saying "the kid" was scared. Who wouldn't be, Boyd was scary. It's not often you see a star slapped to the floor. Hayward was good.
I heard a rumor, they say you got a broken heart
I think the title should have been, "Man Psychotic and Abusive."
