Einen Mann, der als still, etwas unbeholfen, aber grundehrlich gilt. Der NIE was mit Polizei zu tun gehabt hat. Der, man kann so denken, seine Strafzettel, sollte er sie bekommen, im VORAUS bezahlt. Kann ER mit seinen Charaktereigenschaften punkten? Kann er die Polizei von seiner Unschuld überzeugen, oder wirkt er, weil er so "komisch" ehrlich dabei ist - womöglich als schuldig? Ist er vielleicht sogar schuldig? Kann er so gut spielen?Der Film (mit etwas Spoiler); 1956 hat Alfred Hitchcock den besprochenen Film, so liest man, umsonst gemacht. Es ging ihm um die Geschichte, das Geld spielte keine Rolle (für ihn). Die Story hat ihn wirklich fasziniert, sie beruht nämlich auf wahren Begebenheiten und Hitch hat sich an die Geschichte ziemlich genau gehalten. Diesmal gibt es keinen Cameo - Auftritt, nein, Hitchcock spricht selbst das INTRO zum Film. Man sieht ihn nur als Schatten, aber man hört seine Stimme. So soll es auch sein, es hat einen Sinn.Und es ist das Jahr, in dem der große Regisseur wieder eine von seinen "Blondinen" verliert, diesmal heiratet sie in die Hochadel (G. Kelly). Er findet in Vera Miles (geb. 1929) eine würdige Nachfolgerin seiner vorherigen Schauspielerinnen.Christopher Emmanuel Balestrero, genannt Manny (Henry Fonda) ist ein Musiker, der in New Yorker Stork Club Bass spielt. ER verdient utwas über 80 Dollar pro Woche, was für die vierköpfige Familie nicht viel ist. Seine Frau Rose (Vera Miles) hat Probleme mit den Weisheitszähnen und sollte 300 USD für die Behandlung bezahlen. Das Geld hat die Familie nicht. Aber, sie sind alle versichert und Rose's Police kann man beleihen. Als er in das Gebäude der Versicherung kommt, um sich zu informieren, schaut ihn die Angestellte komisch an. Dann geht sie zu ihrer Mitarbeiterinnen, schon sehen ihn DREI Damen Manny sehr sehr...anders.Der Zuschauer erfährt, dass Manny der Mann sein sollte, der die Versicherung schon zweimal überfallen hat. Und rund 270 USD erbeutet. Man verständigt die Polizei, der Täter sollte noch mehrere Raubüberfälle begangen haben.Die Poliezi wartet nun vor seinem Haus und nimmt ihn fest. Er will wenigstens seiner Frau etwas sagen, aber, er muß mit. Fast willenlos zeigt er sich in zwei oder drei Geschäften, die er angeblich überfallen hat. In einem sind sich die Eigentümer nicht ganz sicher. Nun ja, er hat den Anzug, der Hut ist auch da...Auf dem Revier soll er die Sätze, die der Räuber geschrieben hat, überschreiben. Beim zweiten Mal macht er einen Grammatikfehler. Und der Polizeilieutenant Bowers (Harold Stone) ist jetzt überzeugt von der Schuld des Musikers. Auch ein Motiv ist da; das Geld, natürlich.Bei der Gegenüberstellung erkennen die Damen aus der Versicherung in Manny den Mann, also den Täter.Er wird inhaftiert. Dass keiner ihm etwas über seine Rechte sagt, scheint normal. Manny reagiert fast nicht, sieht starr vor sich und schweigt...Es ist wie ein böser Traum, er hofft, er wird aufwachen...Am nächsten Tag wird von den Verwandten und Freunden eine sehr hohe Kaution von 7.500 USD bezahlt. Manny kann nach Hause, er muß er auf die Verhandlung warten. Sein Schwager Gene Conforti (Nehemiah Persoff) rät ihm zu einem Anwalt, Frank O'Connor (Anthony Quayle), der sich die Geschichte genau anhört und dann die Verteidigung annimmt. Die Eheleute sollen rausfinden, wo sie in der Zeit der Tat waren.Und, sie können das Hotel finden, wo sie zu einem Wochenende gefahren sind. Dort erinnert man sich auf die beiden, aber nicht für die ganze Zeit. Da waren drei Männer, mit denen Manny am Tag des Überfalls Karten gespielt hat. Man findet die Adressen. Zwei sind gestorben, vom Dritten fehlt jegliche Spur.Der Prozess beginnt. Im Hause Balestrero ist nun die Mutter (Schwiegermutter), die alles macht. Rose ist nervlich am Ende, spricht nur noch von ihrer Schuld, sie glaubt, weil sie so viel gakauft hat, musste ihr Ehemann Kredite aufnehmen und somit ist SIE die Schuldige. Sie weiß nicht mehr, ob Manny wegen IHR diese Taten begangen hat. Ist er womöglich schuldig? Die Welt bricht zusammen... Sie schläft nicht, isst nicht..., sie wird paranoid und muß ins Krankenhaus. Sie lebt, wie der Arzt sagt, "auf der dunkler Seite des Mondes" in ihrer eingenen "Gefangenheit", in die sie geflüchtet ist.Der Prozess wird zwar wegens eines Fehlers unterbrochen, aber - es kann nur ein Wunder helfen...es gibt nämlich keine Zeugen, die Manny vorweisen könnte.ODER?Ist es möglich, dass wir einen Mann sehen, der einem anderen SEHR ähnlich sieht - vielleicht wegen seines Hutes, wegen seiner Bewegungen, dabei aber die GANZE GESTALT NICHT WAHRNEHMEN - ihn aber als DEN sehen, den man uns präsentiert? Was macht dabei das Unterbewusstsein, was will es? Wie manipulierbar sind wir?Meistens sieht man nur die "wichtigsten" Merkmale. Und, wenn man einmal "ja, das ist er" sagt, sieht man noch mehr, nimm auch das wahr, was nicht möglich ist...Und das hat sich Hitchcock hier zunutze gemacht. Perfekt - wie immer. Ein Meister der Täuschung. Er lässt seine Personen leiden, er hat wenig Mitleid, das Leben ist so...Kein Wunschkonzert nach Komödie-Art. Nicht für ihn. Und, wir glauben ihm sofort!Aber, man soll den Fuchs nicht zu schnell laufen lassen, der "alte" Mann kann uns auch an der Nase..., warten wir ab und sehen uns den Film.Henry Fonda als fast unsichtbarer Mensch, der nie laut sprechen kann, der nur arbeiten kann und von einem besseren Leben träumt, spielt sehr gut. Er ist etwas älter (in der Wirklichkeit natürlich 50), man sieht das auch in der Rolle - einen 38-jährigen, naja, er ist müde, hat abgenommen, kann er gerade noch spielen.Vera Miles, die WUNDERBARE, hat viel zu früh aufgehört zu spielen. Hier, mit 27 Jahren, spielt sie überragend. Ihre Ängste, das Schlimmste von ihnen - ihr Mann könnte schuldig sein, verarbeitet sie in einer Psychose. Sie kann die Realität nicht ertragen, kapselt sich von der Welt ab und bleibt im Krankenhaus. Man sagt, Wunder kommen, nur langsam.Sie spielt perfekt, und zwar zuerst eine junge Ehefrau, etwas ängstlich, sie liebt ihre Familie...dann wird sie immer ängstlicher - bis ihre Schuldgefühle sie gefangen nehmen. Es kann sowas passieren, zum Glück kann man diese "Art" von der Psychose besser heilen, besonders wenn die Ursache nicht mehr da ist. Aber, nicht IMMER und es kann passieren, dass der Mensch nie mehr so sein wird wie vor der Katastrophe.Miles und Fonda sind eher ein "vorsichtiges" Paar, die ganz großen Gefühle fehlen (zum Teil schade). Auch am Beginn sind sie mehr Freunde und Eltern. Sie haben Träume, doch beide lassen sich eher treiben - so trifft sie die Anschuldigung noch härter. Sie glauben, einem Unschuldigen kann NICHTS passieren, sie müssen miterleben, wie schnell man ein Alibi braucht. Und wer denkt schon daran, was er am 23. 12. ...gemacht hat?Anthony Quayle spielt den Anwalt gewohnt gut. Und unser Hitchcock. ER KANN ALLES!FAZIT: zuerst bedanke ich mich für die wunderbaren Besprechungen meinen Vorrezensenten, die ALLE den Film mit 5 (fünf) Punkten bewertet haben; TRIS - am 24. 02. 2011; RAY - am 11. 07. 2013; RUMBU - am 6.10. 2013 und DANIEL (T) - am 30. 03. 2017. Auch andere Rezensenten*innen haben ihre Meinung verteidigt. Ob mit 2 oder 5 P.Der Film ist ein Klassiker und wegen perfekter Kamerabilder, wegen der Musik, alles das gibt ihm noch eine Note - eben ein Film, den man öfter sehen kann.SEHENSWERT! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ THE WRONG MAN [1956 / 2016] [Blu-ray] *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on 18 April 2016* THE WRONG MAN [1956 / 2016] [Blu-ray] Have You Seen ‘The Wrong Man’ . . . Alfred Hitchcock’s Newest Adventure In Terror! The First Hitchcock Film Based On A True Story!‘THE WRONG MAN’ is like and unlike any other Alfred Hitchcock movie. The story packs tension; the images are spellbinding and the dilemma genuinely frightening. But this time, the master of suspense dramatizes the harrowing true experience of a man tried for crimes committed by a look-alike robber.Musician Christopher Emmanuel "Manny" Balestrero [Henry Fonda] needs money to pay for his wife Rose Balestrero's [Vera Miles] dental procedure. When he tries to borrow money from their insurance policy, someone at the office mistakes him for a man who had robbed them twice at gunpoint. After Christopher Emmanuel "Manny" Balestrero is arrested, his defence attorney, Frank O'Connor [Anthony Quayle], works to demonstrate Christopher Emmanuel "Manny" Balestrero has an alibi for the crimes. The stress of the case, however, threatens to destroy Christopher Emmanuel "Manny" Balestrero's family before his name can be cleared. Prologue Narrator: Alfred Hitchcock.FILM FACT: Actors appearing in the film, but not listed in the credits, include Harry Dean Stanton, Werner Klemperer, Tuesday Weld, Bonnie Franklin, and Barney Martin. Tuesday Weld and Bonnie Franklin made their film debuts as two giggly girls answering the door when the Christopher Emmanuel "Manny" Balestrero’s are seeking witnesses to prove his innocence.Cast: Henry Fonda, Vera Miles, Anthony Quayle, Harold J.

Not only does Alfred Hitchcock come right out and say so, addressing the audience directly just as he did in his television series, but the shot itself, with an unidentifiable Alfred Hitchcock walking onto a dark sound stage lighted in extreme chiaroscuro, emphasises how different this is going to be from the escapist fare we expect from this director. Even though Alfred Hitchcock was closely identified with movies of suspense, he clearly liked a change of pace now and then, for he regularly dabbled in other genres than the suspense film, especially again the opening shot of ‘THE WRONG MAN,’ announces in the strongest visual terms that this movie is going to be Alfred Hitchcock's deepest and bleakest foray into the territory of “film noir.”The theory that truth can be more striking than fiction is not too forcefully supported by the saga of ‘THE WRONG MAN’ which was unfolds before your very eyes. Alfred Hitchcock's long-standing fear of the police is what originally attracted him to a newspaper account of a family man wrongly identified as an armed robber. ‘THE WRONG MAN’ pays scrupulous attention to such things as the details of police procedure and the eventual apprehension of the real culprit before the conviction of the wrongly accused man Christopher Emmanuel "Manny" Balestrero [Henry Fonda, but after the stress has driven his wife Rose Balestrero [Vera Miles] to mental breakdown.As has been noted, Alfred Hitchcock apparently was not interested primarily in developing tension. Maxwell Anderson and Angus MacPhail, his writers, capture the-flavour of natural dialogue used by their distressed principals and the technical conversation of the police and lawyers. Alfred Hitchcock’s camera and sound crews have caught the sights and sounds of such authentic locales as the Stork Club, the IND Roosevelt Avenue Station, Jackson Heights streets and homes, Queens Felony Court and jails and the police station and vans transporting the accused to jail.In re-enacting the role of the real Christopher Emmanuel "Manny" Balestrero, Henry Fonda gives a disquietingly even portrayal. Only on rare occasions does he depart from a slightly stooped, trancelike attitude as he is arrested, interrogated, finger-printed, booked, jailed and bailed out. However, Vera Miles, as his wife whose mind snaps under this sudden shock, does convey a poignantly pitiful sense of fear of the appalling situation into which they have been cast.The noted Shakespearean actor Anthony Quayle does a fine, incisive job as Henry Fonda's attorney, and Harold J. Stone and Charles Cooper, who make dispassionate but understanding detectives; Doreen Lang and Laurinda Barrett, as terrified witnesses; Esther Minciotti, as Henry Fonda's mother and Nehemiah Persoff, as his brother-in-law, add distinctive supporting stints. Alfred Hitchcock is not setting a precedent with ‘THE WRONG MAN.’ Alfred Hitchcock has done a fine and lucid job with the facts in ‘THE WRONG MAN’ but they have been made more important than the hearts and dramas of the people they affect.The result is Alfred Hitchcock's most sombre film, unrelieved by his usual macabre humour; the black-and-white photography and the persecuted Henry Fonda's sharply chiselled features lend an impressive documentary feel. It's not generally rated among the master's best works, largely because of the intractability of the source material or Alfred Hitchcock's unwillingness to dramatize the events. But there's still plenty here for Hitchcockophiles: a Jesuitical strain, the man happened to be a devout Catholic, a complicity of guilt, as the wife irrationally comes to blame herself; and it's pure “film noir.”‘THE WRONG MAN’ may be one of Alfred Hitchcock's most atypical films, perhaps even his most atypical film. Yet although Hitchcock moves as close as he ever would to the quasi-documentary realism and “film noir” sensibility of films with a similar subject like ‘Boomerang!’ or ‘Call Northside 777,’ and Alfred Hitchcock never goes all the way in that direction and certainly makes little attempt to give the illusion of fading into the background as did the Italian neorealist directors like Roberto Rossellini who in part inspired such an approach. Alfred Hitchcock's presence and his role as the guiding force behind the film, the authority of his personal stylistic vision, his need to control every detail to elicit a specific response from the audience and is very much in evidence and clearly marks ‘THE WRONG MAN’ as a product of The Master, an unusual one certainly, but nevertheless still identifiably as an Alfred Hitchcock film.Blu-ray Video Quality – Warner Archive Collection of ‘THE WRONG MAN’ presents us with a stunningly remastered film on this Blu-ray disc, and ‘THE WRONG MAN’ is another stellar addition to the company's growing collection of catalogue classics. Here we have a brilliant 1080p encoded image transfer that is a definite step up from the previous inferior DVD release, where we get increased clarity and better contrast combining to create a smoother, and more immersive presentation. Grain is an essential aspect of the film's look, supplying essential texture, but it's well integrated, consistent, and never intrusive. The result is a strikingly organic, film-like appearance that heightens the intimacy of this true-life tale. In addition, and especially with an excellent grey scale variance pumps up detail levels and superior shadow delineation allows us to absorb all the subtleties of Robert Burks' stark and brooding cinematography and not a nick or scratches appear with this pristine print, and no noise or crush creeps into the picture. Alfred Hitchcock aficionados will surely cheer this terrific transfer that perfectly represents the director's intentions.Blu-ray Audio Quality – Warner Archive Collection of ‘THE WRONG MAN’ presents this Blu-ray disc with an excellent 2.0 DTS-HD Master Audio experience that nicely renders all of the film's sonic nuances with ease. Shoe soles crunching against concrete, the rumble of subway trains in the tunnel, and the clicking of adding machines in the insurance office add vital atmosphere to the narrative while heightening aural interest. Excellent fidelity and a rich depth of tone boost the impact of the brilliant composer Bernard Herrmann's wonderful sharp, dramatic atmospheric music score, while all the soft-spoken dialogue is well prioritized and easy to comprehend. Any age-related defects, such as hiss, pops, or crackles, have been meticulously erased, and an expansive dynamic scale keeps distortion at bay. Sound always plays an important role in Alfred Hitchcock films, and this superior track properly showcases all the carefully integrated audio touches.Blu-ray Special Features and Extras:Special Feature: Making-Of Documentary: Guilt Trip: Hitchcock and ‘THE WRONG MAN’ [2004] [480i] [1.33:1] [20:17] This comprehensive and very absorbing piece features comments from directors Peter Bogdanovich and Richard Franklin ['Psycho II'], TCM host Robert Osborne, film critic Richard Schickel, and the film's art director, Paul Sylbert, plus Richard Franklin [Director, Producer and Writer] and Christopher Husted [Manager of Bernard Herrmann Estate]. We find out right at the start of this documentary from Peter Bogdanovich, that when Alfred Hitchcock at the age of 5 years old, was very naughty, and so his father would teach him a lesson, was sent to a police station with a note telling the policeman at the desk to put your Hitchcock in a cell for 5 minutes to teach him a lesson, but of course he thought it was an eternity and always throughout his adult life always had a fear of policemen, which of course helped him when directing the film ‘THE WRONG MAN,’ and make it one of his most dramatic film so far in his filmmaking career. All the participants praise ‘THE WRONG MAN’ and discuss the topic of Alfred Hitchcock and the film's sombre nature and overt religious symbolism, and we also find out that Alfred Hitchcock loved to investigate real police cases of ordinary guys who are wrongly arrested and turn them into his personal films, and Robert Osborne feels this is why this film is one of his best dramatic film, especially reflecting life in a big city, especially in America and of course was helped to make ‘THE WRONG MAN’ such a brilliant film, in having the equally brilliant Maxwell Anderson and Angus MacPhail, who did the screenplay that helped Alfred Hitchcock direct a film with great skill in making it the perfect “film noire” presentation of total brilliance, that also helped Alfred Hitchcock do a very precise storyboard, so that every shot was not wasted and helped to stop the studio heads interfering in not being able to re-editing the film, and in doing so it created so many brilliant frame by frame innovative shots. It also helped by having contributions with the very professional Henry Fonda, who say was a perfect gentleman on and off the set, and also was a very intelligent man and loved to paint and has had several exhibitions of his paintings. There was also great praise from director Richard Franklin of Vera Miles who felt her acting was totally superb, and also made an appearance in his film ‘Psycho II’ and reprieved her performance in the original ‘Psycho’ film. There was of course equal praise for the impact of the brilliant Bernard Herrmann's jazzy atmospheric music score throughout ‘THE WRONG MAN’ film, Alfred Hitchcock loved and loved using sound and music where it mattered most to enhance the atmospheric tension of the film, and of course seeing Alfred Hitchcock unique cameo at the start of the film, was the only time you get to see him in the film and not his usual cameo appearances in all his other films, because he felt it would be too distracting to such a serious subject. Rare on-set photos and examples of Alfred Hitchcock's storyboards, as well as several film clips, enhance this perceptive salute to one of Alfred Hitchcock's lesser known and underrated brilliant film. One thing we find out is that originally it was going to be filmed on location in New York, but at the time of filming it was the height of a very severe winter and Alfred Hitchcock hated the freezing cold, so most of the location work was in New York, but then decided to move everything to California to finish off all the interior shots, that Alfred Hitchcock gave great praise to all workers who built the sets. One bit of information I was shocked about, is that when the film was released in the cinemas, it was not very successful, which makes me feel very angry, as it is a totally brilliant dramatic atmospheric “film noir” Alfred Hitchcock film, and to have people have such a negative attitude at the time was sacrilege, and they must of viewed a different film to the one I watched, but I suppose the reason the film was not a success, because it was not the same style as his other films, that had the same mysterious genre style of directing, whereas this film was told like a real life drama and Alfred Hitchcock could not deviate from the real human tragic story and I for one totally disagree with all the people who gave it such a negative review of the time of its release in the cinema. So all in all this is a really nice informative special feature and also totally fascinating and one not to be missed.Theatrical Trailer [1956] [1080p] [1.85:1] [2:33] This is the Original Theatrical Trailer for the film ‘THE WRONG MAN.’ This is a totally brilliant presentation, but the equally impressive director Alfred Hitchcock, as he often did later in his career, and narrates the film's original preview to great effect, which highlights the gravity and realism of the subject matter, but most important makes this brilliant trailer so atmospheric and so dramatic, it makes you want to view the film to find who is the guilty one.Finally, THE WRONG MAN’ [1956] may not have been one of Alfred Hitchcock's signature films, but this simple, meticulous examination of the devastating impact of mistaken identity on a typical middle class family is a fascinating change of pace for the Master of Suspense. Quiet, understated, but bursting with honest emotion and a gritty realism not usually associated with the director, the movie explores relatable themes and taps into universal fears about the police and an imperfect justice system that often fails its citizens and destroys innocent lives. Warner Archive Collection's Blu-ray presentation features top-notch video and audio transfers and an absorbing special feature, all of which enhances the impact of this well-acted, underrated personal drama from the “Master of Suspense” Mr. Alfred Hitchcock.
