The Thief (1952)
6/10
Bold and unusual but effective
28 May 2020
A US nuclear physicist is also a spy working for an foreign power. When a courier is killed in an accident the FBI start to investigate the source of the leak and he soon becomes the prime suspect.

Interesting film without dialogue, relying on the Academy Award nominated score by Herschel Burke Gilbert and the acting of Ray Milland as the scientist, on a par with his alcoholic in Lost Weekend. Best enjoyed if you keep your eyes on the screen!
