Dead Nazi Summer
The Stranger
Directed by
Orson Welles
Our Dead Nazi Summer series goes film noir with Orson Welles’s third feature and greatest box office success, in which he plays a Nazi hiding in plain sight in small town America.
Immediately following World War II, ex-Nazi Franz Kindler (Orson Welles) is living under a false identity as a teacher in a small Connecticut town, and has even married the headmaster’s daughter (Loretta Young) as part of his cover. But when one of Kindler’s old German associates (Konstantin Shayne) arrives unexpectedly in town, bringing in his wake a sly federal investigator (Edward G. Robinson), Kindler resorts to desperate measures to preserve his secret.
“Socko melodrama, spinning an intriguing web of thrills and chills.” – Variety
