Un gran éxito en su momento para esta adaptación de Alberto Moravia, en torno a una hermosa joven, que redimirá su más bien escabroso pasado gracias al amor puro y desinteresado.
In 1951, two years after the “scandal” of the Fiamma che non si spegne, Cottafavi got the opportunity to work on a film with a small production company, Novissima Film. With little means, a number of technical and financial problems and working Sundays with the pieces of film given to him bit by bit, Cottafavi shot Una donna ha ucciso, a minor film that marked his comeback to directing.
