Review of I Confess (1953) by Lee B — 16 Jan 2011
"This is deceit...this is danger...this is love...!".
"If you knew what he knew -- what would you do?".
Refusing to give into police investigators' questions of suspicion, due to the seal of confession, a priest (Clift) becomes the prime suspect in a murder. Also features Karl Malden as detective in charge of the investigation.
[first lines].
Fr. Michael William Logan: Who's there?

Otto Keller: I have abused your kindness. You who gave my wife and me a home - even friendship, so wonderful a thing for a refugee, a German, a man without a home.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------.
Fr. Michael William Logan: I never thought of the priesthood as offering a hiding place.
