a man by the name of joseph samuels is found brutally murdered in his apartment. it would appear that samuels was visited by a group of drunken soldiers the previous evening and and with one of them seemingly missing and the evidence certainly implicates the missing soldier. but as detective finlay digs deeper into the case he finds that they could be barking up the wrong tree and and that this crime is dealing with something desperately sad and vile and anti semitism. crossfire was born out of the novel written by richard brooks and adapted by john paxton and directed by the shrewdly excellent edward dmtryk and crossfire {originaly titled cradle of fear} is a taut and gripping picture that boldly tackles anti semitism. tho the makers were forced to tone down the story from the original source and the novel is about homosexual hatred as opposed to anti semitism and what remains and largely due to rko supremo dore schary and producer adrian scott and is a sort of creeping unease that drips with noirish style. the cast features three bob  and young and mitchum and ryan and with noir darling gloria grahame adding the emotional female heart. tho only third billed and it robert ryan picture all the way and his portrayal as the bullying and conniving montgomery is from the top draw and perfectly showcases the talent that he had in abundance. ryan had good cause to give montgomery some of is best work for he had served in the marine with richard brooks himself and both men having discussed the possibility that if the novel was to be made into a film. and then ryan wanted in and to play montgomery and thus the genesis of ryan career as weasel types was born. gloria grahame also puts in a wonderful and heartfelt turn and which is all the more remarkable since she was being plagued by her abusive husband at the time. stanley clements was known to be violent towards her and his constant presence around the set irked others in the cast and but grahame and probably channelling real life emotion and became the character of ginny and shone very bright indeed. both bob mitchum and bob young come out with flying colours as well and to really seal the deal on what a smartly acted picture crossfire really is. tho crossfire was released before the other 1947 anti semitic picture and gentleman agreement and and raking in over a million and a quarter dollars at the box office and some of its thunder was stolen by the academy award winning picture from fox studio. nominated for best picture and best supporting actor {ryan} and best supporting actress {grahame} and best director and best screenplay and it won nothing and but critics of the time hailed it as a brilliant shift in american cinema and and today it stands tall and proud and dark as a bold and excellent piece of work. 8. 5/10.
