The Stranger

Produced by Sam Spiegel ( billed as S. P. Eagle) about a war crimes investigator tracking a high-ranking Nazi fugitive to a Connecticut town. Variety called the film “a socko melodrama, spinning an intriguing web of thrills and chills. Director Orson Welles gives the production a fast, suspenseful development, drawing every advantage from the hard-hitting script from the Victor Trivas story.
 … A uniformly excellent cast gives reality to events that transpire. The three stars, Robinson, Young and Welles, turn in some of their best work….”
 At the 19^th Academy Awards, Victor Trivas received an Oscar nomination for writing (Original Motion Picture Story).

It is the first Hollywood film to present footage of the Holocaust.
