This film is a MASTERPIECE

I'm obsessed with how Edward G Robinson was in every movie of the 1940s... This movie is so good!

A truly remarkable film. All the actors were pitch perfect. And free on KZfaq. Who needs Netflix. Welles was a genius. Love this film.

I cannot remember a movie with Edward G that I didn't like. The pacing is perfect, it always keeps you interested.

Excellent movie. First time seeing it. What an ending. No ships flying around, no explosions, no gore , only pure talent , great entertainment.

Loretta Young was never more beautiful and Orson so handsome 💌 What a fine film, and Edward G. R.! He's an icon! How lucky we are to able to still enjoy these phenomenal films in these modern times (where good films are few and far between)...

One's admiration for Robinson grows with each picture.

When he says " ONLY A NAZI WOULD SAY KARL MARK WAS NOT A GERMAN BECAUSE HE WAS .A JEW" great line

The simplicity of the plot, the cinematography, and the acting make this a masterpiece.

Orson Wells was a phenomenal actor as was Loretta Young. Movies now are made based on special affects rather than true acting.

Edward Robinson is so good! I just saw him in Scarlet Street (quite the thriller that one too). And Welles could have been silent this entire film and get acting credit just for his eyes. What a wild ride.

For last three nights I've been watching these oldies luv it

This is one of the BEST FILMS EVER!! Thank You for showing what real movies were actually like. With real plots real actors that stood up and fought for America in their work and in the Military when they KNEW AMERICA IS THE GREATEST COUNTRY THE WORLD HAS EVER KNOWN. These actors then would have torn down Hollywood and anyone else that tried to destroy America. Try to imagine ANY of these actors allowing a foreign country any country to take over Hollywood, and allow the biggest enemy and HATER of the US, china control the entire film industry. To disrespect the Flag they fought and died for and to allow perversion to become the only thing that comes out of Hollywood today. Especially of children and to promote slavery and genocide and to destroy civil rights that people like Dr. Martin Luther King and many others of ALL Races fought and died for. Most of all when America was really the "Home Of The Brave". Thank You for Posting this movie.

Edward.G.Robinson is a.class actor..his expressions speaks more than his dialogues..from his facial gestures we get to know what goes on his mind according to the situation..a style which rarely any actor possess..orson Welles too is also another great splendid actor..old Hollywood movies had some realistic actors..something which we cant find in nowadays movies..what an era..hats off to all the master craft directors.. .

One of THE best classics...they don't make good movies like this anymore....thank you PizzaFlix

This film is truly a classic. Way ahead of it's time when it was made, which is the same for all Orson Welles movies.

I ABSOLUTELY enjoy this movie. Doesn't matter how many times I have watched it, it just gets better. The coldness of the beast and the naivete of the lamb are irresistible.

no cgi, no super heroes, no , just a good script with terrific actors and brilliant direction by mr Welles---its a shame young people havent the attention span to watch movies like this---its Matrix for them all the way

They just don't make movies like this no more, superb acting and great plot. Orson Welles, they'll never be one like him. A must watch his bio, on youtube almost 2 hour's long. The man a genius.

This piece of silver screen is one of my go to movies when I want to relaxe and forget the troubles of today. Thanks for all you do.

What a great film this is. Worth multiple viewings.

Orson Welles knows how to put scares in people

This film captures the artistry of the film noire…lighting…shadows…eyes. Of all the mesmerizing scenes (and there are so many) the two I find most chilling are the dinner table monologue where Wells talks about the necessity for Nazism as though he was reciting a recipe for the perfect cake. No histrionics….no soap box rabble rousing speech. It’s his calmness that makes it that much more terrifying. Finally, the scene in the clock tower with Loretta and Robinson hot on his heels. Only then did I understand the significance of the clock and his almost obsession with it….his fear of running out of time. Oh yes! Wells covered every detail. Bravo!

I never was interested in old movies, and honestly, I just ran out of movies to watch. I began with the Sherlock Holmes films which landed me here. ... I have to say, this was a fantastic experience! Thank you! 👍

Came upon this gem by accident some time ago. It's so addictive. I watch it often. It's like comfort food. Thanks for posting!

No hi tech stuff. Just good acting. The way it was meant to be.

This is a very well thought out movie and the suspense is just unbelievable!

One of the best Noir films ever made. You can watch this dozens of times in your life and never get tired of it. That is cinematic greatness! I first saw this in 1959 when I was 5. My mom told me about each one of the actors. My dad was an actor (stage) and my mom a movie buff. She even knew the bit players and had stories about them. She saw Noir when they were new releases!

You don't realize how masterful a web has been spun until the end and when the clockwork comes undone the weight of it carries you over the edge with it! All his evil scheming undone in an instant. Impaled by the very work he labored over so carefully. He doesn't really get it until that moment. A veritable Greek tragedy.... Thanks for posting this!

Who's watching this thrilling movie in 2021

Orson Welles was great. He truly played the character

Can,t say enough about this movie and my fave..mr edward g. Robinson. Top 10 movie of all time. Thank you so much for bringing this true cinema classic to life!!!

Great movie with a fantastic cast! You won't regret watching this one!

Skewered by the sword of an angel! Great movie, great actors. Thanks for posting.

Thank you KZfaq!! What a gift to be able to see videos featuring so many different subjects. One of which are viewing masterpieces like The Stranger. I cannot believe that we have access to so many movies like this one for free. KZfaq is definitely the best source of information and entertainment. Bravo!! ❤❤

Great suspense and performances by Orson Welles and Edward G.Robinson. I don’t know if this movie is in the AFI list of Great Movies, but,definitely “ should be.

ORSON WELLS PLAYED HIS PART SO. DAMM WELL!

Orson Welles, Edward G. Robinson and Loretta Young What a cast .. Thank you for sharing this.

Konstantin Shayne's voice sounds so much like Peter Lorre's! Thanks for uploading this movie, it's one of those you can watch over and over again!

Acting, camera, directing, dialogue, plot. One of the best in this genre in my opinion, it has aged well. Thank you for putting this up for viewing.

Anything with Orson Welles is always superb and what makes it even better is when he is also the director. I've seen this movie several times and it gets better with time. My favorite actor of ALL times.

Frame by frame, one of the most beautifully shot films of all time!

A phenomenal film. The camera angles, the shadows, the acting, the story...super good noir!!!

The "cat and mouse" in this movie was amazing. Loved it.

The stranger. Three superstars working at full steam. Everything is just right for this classic film.

Expressionist/film noir (nwah, not no-r!) superbly directed, written, acted and photographed. Interesting that Mary's own father addresses her as "sister," once quite a common custom. The term was usually reserved for the eldest daughter of a family and used not just by younger siblings, but by parents as well.

It's so great to see Mr. Welles in his prime and at the top of his game. Playing cat and mouse with Eddie Robinson no less! Mr. Welles should have been nominated for an Oscar in 1946 because this same year he made 'Tomorrow is Forever' and just breaks your heart in a totally opposite role. What an actor he was. Thank you.

this is one of the best classic movies i love to watch on a cold day ..great story and great music..and the actors are in TOP FORM...

Such a great movie!! The casting, the story, the wardrobes, such a different time, when ladies wore such pretty dresses and gentlemen wore suits.

Great movie not the crap today! Shadows, lighting are a masterpiece! Classic!

As a teen, I remember staying up late all alone one night when this movie came on. It must have been about 2am. I’d never watched an old black and white drama like this. I’m almost 60 years old now and I still enjoy this movie and it brings back fond memories of my teenaged years

I love these old films they are all truly works of art

The incredible pacing of this script is outstanding. Never more than a breath between scenes that continue elevating the story, just perfect.

welles and robinson together is so cool!!! love it

Aloha from Hawaii! E.G.R. was such a fine actor,the entire cast was superlative. Mahalo for this fine entertainment.

A true classic, I'm in my 40s but love the older films and master film makers like Orson Wells and actors like Wells, Robinson, Heston, Bogart, Grant, etc.

Great movie, unlike today's low quality movies.

One of my favorite films to watch on my day off from work, preferably in the fall when it is rainy and dark! LOL. Awesome cast!

I can't say I was ever a big fan of Orson Welles. At least the work he did in front of the camera. He always had that crazed look in his eyes and that wild expression on his face. Although I do have to say he played parts like this one very well. He was a good actor to play unsympathetic roles. But in any case it is a great film. Good story and good script. Good actors. Loretta Young was always a delight to watch.

The opening music captures the drama and excitement of old Hollywood! Great film by my standards, Loretta Young amazing as ever. She was a great dramatic actress.

Orson is a genius ...A macabre genius movie director and actor ...Edward G. and Loretta was an excellent cast selection too

Back in the day this was considered a mess. What a joy to see it now! Thank you for that.

I know I shouldn't be surprised, but this is a damn fine movie!

,,,,,, nothing but the most hypnotizing acting, storytelling magnificence...never duplicated to this day 2019

This movie is very dark. Loretta Young is absolutely brilliant as she awakens from her naive dreams. Spellbinding.

Wonderful movie. Kept me on the edge of my seat.

Orson Welles warning the public that Nazis had infiltrated the US and might be found in Anytown, USA, in the most respectable circles. The movie was made in 1946 - right at the time of Operation Paperclip.Brilliant movie. One of his best. Thanks for the upload.

At last Orson Welles' amazing talent was recognised by the public for the genius he was and this movie was his only real box office hit. Its success was helped by the fact that it was made directly after the war in 1946 when there was great interest about Nazis both at the Nuremberg Trials and, more critically, the fate of Nazis who had simply vanished after the war.

I simply delight in this movie. I am experiencing chills and thrills. Outstanding acting ans and deep dialogue. This is truly indeed one of my favorite Olsen Wells movie, not to mention the stellar supporting cast.

Edward g. Robinson was one of the classic actors from the 40s .

Orson Welles was pure genius.

I am so happy I chose to watch this! A great tribute to all the stars.....Young, Long, Robison, and Wells! 💕👏🏻👏🏻

One of the best movies from that time!

One of my favorite movies! All of the cast were great.

Amazing cinematography, sets, locations, music, actors coupled with a fairly good story. This movie is a real classic. Thank you PizzaFlix.

One of my favorites. Brilliant acting, direction, production. They just don't make them like this anymore. Thank you.

I guess I have seen this a hundred times... I am that old., it just flows so well.. just the sound of their voices is a pleasure..

Thank you for the upload and thank you very much for zero commercials!

80's sitcom and black and white movies are the best!

Welles, at his worst, was far better than anyone else. Hearst and Hollywood moguls deprived us of much work that would have been done by one of our greatest artists. We only have a few, but those few are treasures.

Film extraordinaire 🌷 Merci pour nous offrir une superbe soirée au cinéma 🌈 Thank you for this very unique film 🎥 and sharing with us 🌺

It's remarkable how much Orson Welles owe to, or is inspired by, German Expressionism, in contrast to the US production of that time (faces close-up, shadows...) He's camera is also very mobile... And the rich multilayered sound track, which adds this anguish sentiment, is used later by Godard.

Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you!

Orson Welles was a genius.

WOW. less than 6 minutes in and spellbound by the story and awesome shadow and lighting. Excellent example of noir.

The shocked look Welles gives when discovering his wife alive in the movie.. superb acting!

I've been glued to my seat , love these old movies , thanks for sharing

Such a classic and so highly underrated

The only reason Orson even agreed to make this movie was to prove that his movies COULD turn a profit. That's amazing to me. He really didn't care about this movie at all and yet it is still so well made.

A Masterpiece from the 1940's.

Ah.. I thought to myself... An Orson Welles movie I haven't seen... I'll just watch it for twenty minutes or so. One hour thirty-five minutes later I was running late for work.

This is acting at its finest the emotional range of the actors is the special effects not that computer animated crap they are turning out nowadays

One of the great films oftentimes overlooked, especially the ending.

Excellent movie , impeccable performances , direction by Orson Welles 👍

The shadows really set the mood This movie is a classic of camera work

Thank you, thank you,thank you,for finding this fabulous movie with all the greats in it.

I have been watching these type of movies for 64 years and as a kid the reruns were new to me. It was when we got a color TV and more things were made in color I realized more clearly that I grew up watching movies from the 40's and 50's. Good quality film and sound, thank you for posting it.

Orson Welles, What Can I Say? He's One Of The Most Brilliant Intellectuals/Actors Of All Time (s)!!! This Movie Was Excellent With A Magnificent Plot! Thank You For The Upload! ✌️❤️✌️

Edward G. Robinson & Orson Wells in the same picture is a Dream come true!

The cast The story The lighting The final minute Splendid film
