Trailer & Synopsis
A Technicolor noir with a dark heart, Leave Her to Heaven is a portrait of a complex woman in trouble, played by the incredible Gene Tierney. While travelling across America by train, novelist Richard Harlan (Cornel Wilde) meets beautiful socialite Ellen Berent (Tierney) and the pair begin a whirlwind romance. Tensions grow between the couple as Richard realises his beloved hasn't been entirely honest about her past; Ellen in turn develops an obsessive jealousy towards anyone or anything that might turn his attention from her, including his own family. Those closest to Richard attempt to warn him about the extremes of Ellen's possessive nature, but even they don't realise how low she would sink to hold onto what's rightfully hers.
