Directed by Joseph Losey | 1951
With David Wayne, Howard Da Silva, Martin Gabel
Iconoclastic director Joseph Losey’s remarkable, rarely-screened remake of Fritz Lang’s Expressionist landmark relocates the story—about the citywide hunt for a psychopathic child murderer (Wayne, frighteningly effective)—to a seedy 1950s Los Angeles. This claustrophobic portrait of urban decay and mass hysteria stands as a soul-sick fable for the McCarthy era. Preserved by the Library of Congress.
