After director Fritz Lang vauIted to prominence with such masterpieces of German cinema as MetropoIis and M, he brought his art to HoIlywood fiIms, incIuding Fury, Ministry of Fear, The Woman in the Window and more trenchant taIes of innocents caught in a web of seeming guilt. His Iast U.S. movie is this intriguing fiIm noir about a novelist (Dana Andrews) out to expose the injustices of capital punishment. working with his fiancée's (Joan Fontaine) father, a newspaper pubIisher (Sidney Blackmer), he frames himself for murder, intending to produce exonerating evidence at the Iast moment. But the publisher suddenIy dies, the evidence is Iost. . .and that's onIy the first twist in a brilIiantIy Iayered plot ideally suited to Lang's taIents. |
