Cry Danger by Richard Parrish (1951, 79 min.). Rocky Mullory (Dick Powell) is framed for a crime he didn’t commit. Released from prison five years later, he’s determined to track down the real culprit. In his directorial debut, Robert Parrish skillfully turns Cry Danger into an underappreciated noir gem. “All the ingredients for a suspenseful melodrama are contained in Cry Danger” (Variety).
