    I expected to really like this movie but for me, It was just something to watch

    Katharine Hepburn is excellent as the frantic wife, as always, but it was Robert Taylor who really impressed me. Taylor usually plays really good guys (like "Ivanhoe") or a handsome. devoted lover (like "Camille"), but in this movie, he plays a psycho, a total change from his usu...( read more)al material.

    In the beginning of "Undercurrent", it seems he is playing the handsome, devoted lover again...until he marries Katharine Hepburn and the subject of his brother (played well, but briefly by Robert Mitchum) comes up. He is angry and he despises his brother, who according to Taylor, is no good. Hepburn tries to find out more about the brother, making Taylor angrier and somewhat scarier everytime. Now, Taylor isn't as good as Anthony Perkins in psychotic roles, but he can definitely act the part rather well.
    For Hepburn or Taylor fans, I'd recommend this movie (and perhaps for Mitchum fans as well, because this was definitely one of his starting movies and his acting was not inferior to Hepburn's or Taylor's, both much more experienced actors. True, he was not on the same level as them yet, but he was not easily overpowered), as well as fans of psychological thrillers.

    All CLASSICS are GOOD

    hepburn is oddly cast in a menaced woman role but that helps make it interesting viewing.
