STRANGER ON THE THIRD FLOOR
starstarstarstar
This striking, extremely weird B-movie has been hailed as the first true film noir, and it certainly has all the noir elements, both visual and thematic. John Maguire stars as a reporter who, feeling guilty because his eyewitness testimony has sent a possibly innocent man to the electric chair, dreams he's falsely accused of murdering his next-door neighbor. He awkens to find that the man really has been murdered. Peter Lorre costars as the mysterious stranger seen lurking outside the dead man's door.
