NOTHING TO FEAR: HITCHCOCK & THE WRONG MAN – JASON ISRALOWITZ
In 1956, the world’s most famous director focused his lens on an issue that cuts to the heart of the criminal justice system, the risk of wrongful conviction. The result was The Wrong Man, a wrenching and largely overlooked drama based on the false arrest of a musician. Despite a detective’s assurance that the innocent have nothing to fear, we watch the descent of justice into tunnel vision. No surprise that Hitchcock was ahead of his time here, depicting several of the pitfalls that keep the contemporary innocence project busy.
