English Summary:
Confess is a 1953 American film noir directed by Alfred Hitchcock, and starring Montgomery Clift as Fr. Michael William Logan, a Catholic priest, Anne Baxter as Ruth Grandfort, and Karl Malden as Inspector Larrue.
The film is based on a 1902 French play by Paul Anthelme called Nos deux consciences (Our Two Consciences), which Hitchcock saw in the 1930s. The screenplay was written by George Tabori.
Filming was done largely on location in Quebec City with numerous shots of the city landscape and interiors of its churches and other emblematic buildings, such as the Château Frontenac.
"Technically one of Hitchcock's most brilliant films" - David Shipman, The Story of Cinema
Hungarian Summary:
Michael Logan atya, a vallásos áhítat és jámborság mintaképe meggyóntat egy gyilkost, így ő az egyetlen, aki ismeri a tettes kilétét.
A papi titoktartás azonban hallgatásra kötelezi. Még akkor is, amikor az ügyben megindult nyomozás során egyre inkább ráterelődik a gyanú.
A kor egyik legnagyobb sztárja, Montgomery Clift, lenyűgöző átéléssel játssza az ördögi körben vergődő Logan atyát.
Színésztársai az Oscar®-díjas Anne Baxter és a szintén Oscar®-díjas Karl Malden. Hitchcock Quebec festői szépségű utcáin forgatta le ezt a különleges krimit, amelynek felejthetetlen végkifejlete ma már filmtörténeti kuriózum.
