Kick-Back Friday: #64

Odd Man Out (1947): A young James Mason rocks an Irish accent as a fugitive leader, Johnny McQueen, of a guerilla warfare group in Belfast. Things go horribly wrong during the cell's attempted robbery of a local mill, and an injured, delirious McQueen is left to endure an Odyssey-like journey among the city's ambivalent citizens. Nighttime chase scenes foreshadow director Carol Reed's treatment of similar events in The Third Man (1949).
