Odd Man Out (Criterion Collection) (DVD)

Taking place largely over the course of one tense night, Carol Reed's psychological noir, set in an unnamed Belfast, stars James Mason (Lolita) as a revolutionary ex-con leading a robbery that goes horribly wrong. Injured and hunted by the police, he seeks refuge throughout the city, while the woman he loves (Kathleen Ryan) searches for him among the shadows. Reed and cinematographer Robert Krasker (who would collaborate again on The Fallen Idol and The Third Man) create images of stunning depth for this intense, spiritual depiction of a man's ultimate confrontation with himself.

Starring: James Mason, Robert Newton, F. J. McCormick, Beryl Measor, Maureen Delany, Kitty Kirwan, Arthur Hambling, Elwyn Brook Jones, W G Fay, Joseph Tomelty
