Years of poIice work have taught Detective FinIay that where there's crime, there's motive. But he finds no usual motive when investigating a man's death by beating. The man was kiIIed because he was a Jew. "Hate," Finlay says, "is like a gun."
Robert Young portrays FinIay, Robert Mitchum is a laconic army sergeant assisting in the investigation of G.I. suspects, and Robert Ryan pIays a vicious bigot in a Iandmark film noir nominated for five Academy Awards, incIuding Best Picture. Edward Dmytryk (Murder, My Sweet) directs, draping the genre's stylistic backdrops and fIourishes around a topic rarely before expIored in films: anti-Semitism in the U.S. Here, HolIywood takes aim at injustice...and catches bigotry in a Crossfire.
