- ट्रिवियाThe last film that Jean Renoir directed in Hollywood, and a very painful experience for him as it was severely compromised.
- गूफ़When Robert Ryan's character rides up to the shipwreck on the beach, his foul weather jacket has a US Navy emblem on the left breast. He's in the Coast Guard, not the Navy. After he dismounts, the emblem is gone.

Tod: Peggy, did it ever occur to you that to me you'll always be young and beautiful? No matter how old you grow - I'll always remember you as you were the last day I saw you - young, beautiful, bright, exciting. No one who can see can say that to you. - - Peg, you're so beautiful... so beautiful outside, so rotten inside.
Peggy: You're no angel.
Tod: No. I guess we're two of a kind.

After recuperation from physical and psychological trauma during the war, Robert Ryan finds himself stationed at a sleepy Coast Guard outpost on the California coast. He's restless and diffident about his upcoming marriage to a local girl. One day on the fog-shrouded strand he encounters a beautiful woman (Joan Bennett) gathering driftwood. He walks her back to her beach shack where a two-edged friction starts to develop. Suddenly in walks her husband (Charles Bickford), who was blinded by Bennett in a drunken accident years before; though no longer able to work, he's still reckoned the greatest painter in the world. (Renoir's father, of course, was the impressionist painter Auguste Renoir.)
Ostensibly glad to have a guest, Bickford insists on Ryan's promising a return visit. But as the flickers of attraction he feels toward Bennett kindle into lust, Ryan begins to wonder if Bickford is really blind, or as blind as he claims; he also starts to chafe at being drawn into the murky and perverse games the couple seems to enjoy playing. Determined to prove once and for all that Bickford is sighted, he one day leads him nearer and nearer the edge of a bluff....
Like Fritz Lang's Clash by Night (which also starred Ryan), The Woman on the Beach deserves its noir label more from disturbing mood and freighted ambiguity than from its storyline (it's by no means a conventional suspense drama). He inspires his principal cast to superlative performances, especially Bickford (in a role reminiscent of Nabokov's Laughter in the Dark). Bennett, one of the early icons of the noir cycle, attracted the attention of two other illustrious European movie-makers, Lang and Max Ophuls. But Renoir may have directed her in the finest work of her career as this self-described "tramp" embroiled in a marriage kept together by hate as much as love. And there's Ryan's signature blend of short-sightedness and roiling anger, which he has done elsewhere, but nobody save maybe Brando did more convincingly.
The unusual score, too by the German Communist `serious' composer Hanns Eisler betokens that this production's ambitions are very high indeed. If The Woman on the Beach falls just short of `masterpiece' status, blame must fall on RKO for meddling with what Renoir delivered, fretful that situations and innuendos that Europeans regularly took in their stride might be too naughty for Americans those Americans who had, after all, just fought and won a war. Even hacked down to a measly 71 minutes, Renoir's vision keeps its haunting, incantatory power.
