The Stranger by Orson Welles (1946)


Loretta Young as a brand-new wife of professor Rankin

Well, as you can see from title, after a series of Alfred Hitcock's movies, I'm moving on to a new one on Orson Welles's gems.

Edward G. Robinson as Mr. Wilson

Orson Welles as Rankin/Kindler

In The Stranger (1946), an investigator from the War Crimes Commission travels to Connecticut to find an infamous Nazi. Orson Welles as Rankin/Kindler and Edward G. Robinson, who plays the investigator, are brilliant. Konstantin Shayne as Meinike (I'm travelling for health, I'm travelling for health..) is unforgettable either.
