Directed by Orson Welles | 95 mins | 1946
Welles’s third completed feature gets only a fraction of the attention of the pictures that preceded it, but this baroque thriller about a war crimes investigator (Edward G. Robinson) looking for a Nazi fugitive in small-town Connecticut has brio to spare, with Welles in fine fettle as the prime suspect right up to the film’s delicious Grand Guignol climax.
