I Confess (1953)

Description

In Alfred Hitchcock's 'I Confess', Father Michael Logan (Montgomery Clift), apparently a model of clerical piety, hears a killer's confession. Eyewitnesses point to a priest as the murderer and the sacrament of penance forbids Logan to speak out - even in his own defense - when circumstantial evidence targets Logan as the prime suspect! Academy Award® winners Anne Baxter* and Karl Malden co-star as a former flame and a police inspector whose attempts to clear Logan only entrap him further. Filmed in Quebec on locations highlighting that city's Old World traditions, 'I Confess' races toward a climax that's unforgettable. And in true Hitchcock fashion, you'll confess to being hooked all the way.
