Radio review – Lux – “The Big Clock” (1950) ***

It lacks the terrific visual of a line of witnesses examining everyone who leaves a building – the main image I have from the film – but this is still a strong story, and it’s given a decent presentation, with Ray Milland and Maureen O’Sullivan returning from the film. Good sweaty paranoia, although it’s hard to believe there was such a thing as a crime magazine whose star editor could solve cases the cops couldn’t.
