Takes its time to build it's story and mental strains of its characters, but the film is focused enough to get where it wants to go. So it's another quality film from Mexican director Roberto Gavaldón, even if it's not up to his absolute best.

A kind of Double Indemnity with an occult twist. Frankly, I would have liked more of the latter than the former - when it starts to make too much sense, the picture loses some interest. Perhaps because of the need for mystery, I ultimately found Carmen Montejo's Clara - the wife of our tragic Odysseus figure - uniquely compelling as the strong-willed second-fiddle. A minor gem.
