****1/2 1949. Directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz, HOUSE OF STRANGERS is an adaptation of Jerome Weidman's I'll never go there any more. NYC in the early 30's. When the government starts to examine how Gino Moretti's familial bank really works, the old Italian born godfather must face three of his four sons who wants to forsake him. First-rate film noir that will force you to admit that Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather (Widescreen Edition) was not the first movie to talk about the family problems of the members of the honorable society.
Viewer Reviews Dialogue that can be relished, a classic yarn about a Lear like figure playing his children off against each other and black and white photography of delicious clarity - go ahead, do yourself a favour!
