Tragic love story of a maid who blackmails her murderous master. It's hard to pin down why this should have been better, other than the fact that it is rather boring. Simmons and Granger, despite being married in real life, do not have much chemistry on screen. Sure, there is the titular murder in pea soup London fog, but it is far from tense. The plot twists are rather predictable, even the big one at the end. Victorian atmosphere is probably the best thing about the film.
