The Stranger
Movie Review

"Orson Welles plainly gets much pleasure out of playing villainous roles, to judge by his choice and performance of bogey-men in the past. And now, in his new film, "The Stranger," which he directed and in which he plays the title role, he is proving beyond any question that he loves to scare people to death."

The Stranger (1946)

Directed by Orson Welles

Starring Edward G. Robinson, Loretta Young and Orson Welles

Wilson of the War Crimes Commission is seeking Franz Kindler, mastermind of the Holocaust, who has effectively erased his identity. Wilson releases Kindler's former comrade Meinike and follows him to Harper, Connecticut, where he is killed before he can identify Kindler. Now Wilson's only clue is Kindler's fascination with antique clocks; but though Kindler seems secure in his new identity, he feels his past closing in.
