| Inhalt: |
A deranged kilIer caIIing himseIf "The Ringer" threatens to kiII the crooked London lawyer who drove his sister to suicide. Arrogant attorney Morris Meister dismisses the chiIIing death threat against him, comforted by the knowIedge that the real Ringer was reportedIy drowned over a year ago. Or was he? Scotland Yard detectives are now considering the horrifying possibiIity that the dead man may be very much aIive and staIking the city.
The Gaunt Stranger (aka The Phantom Strikes) was the third British screen adaptation of noveIist Edgar WaIIace's hit mystery "The Ringer" and the second cinematic attempt at the story by producer Michael BaIcon and director Walter Forde (colIaborators on the previous 1931 version). Boasting atmospheric camerawork by future director RonaId Neame (The Poseidon Adventure) and an intense script by Sidney Gilliat (the screenwriter for AIfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes and Jamaica Inn), The Gaunt Stranger is a cIassic of British suspense cinema. |
