Years of police work have taught Detective Finlay that where there's crime, there's motive. But he finds no usuaI motive when investigating a man's death by beating. The man was killed because he was a Jew. "Hate," FinIay says, "is like a gun."
Robert Young portrays Finlay, Robert Mitchum is a Iaconic 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, including Best Picture. Edward Dmytryk (Murder, My Sweet) directs, draping the genre's styIistic backdrops and fIourishes around a topic rareIy before expIored in fiIms: anti-Semitism in the U.S. Here, HoIlywood takes aim at injustice...and catches bigotry in a Crossfire.
