Her purpose for the trip is soon clear, however, when she begins acting out a plot to murder her beloved. A surprising climax reveals the husband's ulterior motives as well. This was the first leading role for Monroe who immediately became a major box office draw. The camera follows her seductively through this suspenseful thriller. [More]

Reviews for Niagara
Apesar das boas atuações de Joseph Cotten, Jean Peters e da presença marcante de Marilyn Monroe, o filme naufraga graças a um roteiro medíocre e à direção burocrática de Hathaway.
The parts without [Monroe's] luminous presence onscreen are noticeably less interesting than those parts where she was involved.
The real star in this film is the majestic and powerful Niagara Falls...
