Review of The Big Clock (1948) by Matt T — 23 May 2010
Ray Milland plays an editor who has been put in charge to look for an alleged murderer in the building that he works. There is only one problem. He is the alleged murderer and there is a witness. Of course, he is innocent but has been set up. Time is running out...
This is the premise of a tension filled film noir, with the delicious irony of the hunter hunting himself. One of the first noirs that I ever saw and got me into the genre. Co-star Charles Laughton is wonderful as Milland's boss.
