Radio review – Suspense – “Track of the Cat” (1952) ***1/2

The novel was later adapted as a Robert Mitchum movie which I’ve never seen – presumably it was changed a lot because this is so internal. It mostly takes place in the paranoid mind of Richard Widmark as he sets off after a puma that is on the loose in the old west. He goes progressively mad, leading to his own death. Widmark is very good and internal tales adapt well to radio - I really liked it.
