The Passing Stranger (1954)

Directed by John Arnold

Overview

The British Passing Stranger stars Hollywood actor Lee Patterson as a deserting American GI. He drifts about until he falls in with a gang of gunrunners. He wants to quit, but can’t until he makes enough money to support himself and his love Diane Cilento. Just before this is possible, Cilento’s ex-boyfriend blows the whistle on the crooks. Just long enough not to wear out its welcome, The Passing Stranger is a passing good little film noir.

Length 84 minutes
