Directed by: Charles Laughton

Robert Mitchum gives one of his finest performances as the psychopathic preacher, Harry Powell, who is arrested for a minor offence in a small West Virginian town. His cell mate, Ben Harper, who faces the death penalty, confides that he has hidden $10,000 from a bank robbery.

By the time that Powell's sentence is over, Harper has been hanged, and the 'preacher' seeks out the widow and children of the deceased, unaware that the money has been concealed in the daughter's doll. What follows is one of the most menacing and terrifying pursuits in cinematic history.
