The Wrong Man

About this movie

Academy Award-winner Henry Fonda ("On Golden Pond") stars in this riveting drama based on a true story. When mild-mannered bass player Fonda is wrongly accused of robbery, his life is slowly destroyed. Vera Miles ("Psycho") is his wife, who starts to crack under the pressure. Based on the real case of nightclub musician "Manny" Balestrero and presented like a semi-documentary, this shattering and compelling tale from master-of-suspense Alfred Hitchcock keeps you on the edge of your seat!

Ratings and reviews

Another wonderful Hitchcock movie. I really wish Google would do a Hitchcock box set, they'd make a fortune if they did us a good deal!

It features great acting and a moving story, but is a bit slow-paced at times.
