Boomerang! (1947 Elia Kazan)

Don't forget the exclamation mark. Another true story. Under huge political pressure, Dana Andrews has to bring a priest murderer to justice, but he suspects they have the wrong man (Arthur Kennedy - you know, from A Summer Place and Peyton Place). As the credits announce the places and real people involved were used as much as possible.

With Jane Wyatt, Lee J Cobb (Twelve Angry Men, On the Waterfront), Cara Williams (The Defiant Ones), Robert Keith, Ed Begley, Sam Levene.

Alfred Newman wrote the (little) music, Norbert Brodine photographed.
