SUSPICION Well-to-do wallflower Joan Fontaine (Academy Award and New York Film Critics Circle Award winner as 1941's Best Actress) suspects that dashing playboy Cary Grant, who swept into her life and married her is murderer -- and that she may be his next victim. STANGERS ON A TRAIN The agreement: I'll kill your intended victim if you kill mine. Robert Walker and Farley Granger play a psychopathic playboy and tennis pro run over by the locomotive wheels of a bizarre double-murder scheme. I CONFESS Priest Montgomery Clift hears a killer's confession -- and is ensnared when his vows forbid him to speak and evidence points to him as the prime suspect! Anne Baxter and Karl Malden costar as an ex-fame and a policeman whose attempts to clear the cleric only entrap him further. THE WRONG MAN Can a falsely accused man withstand the crushing weight of the justice system? Henry Fonda plays a musician jailed for the crimes of a lookalike robber. Vera Miles is his distraught wife, driven mad by the ordeal. Based on a true story and filmed on New York locations were the actual events happened.
