Time limit (1957) - war drama from director Karl Malden, starring Richard Basehart, Richard Widmark and Dolores Michaels

Rating 7.3/10
Runtime: 96 min
Language: English
Country: USA
Directed by: Karl Malden
IMDb Link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0051083/

Cast

Richard Widmark ... Col. William Edwards
Richard Basehart ... Maj. Harry Cargill
Dolores Michaels ... Cpl. Jean Evans
June Lockhart ... Mrs. Cargill
Carl Benton Reid ... Lt. Gen. J. Connors
Martin Balsam ... Sgt. Baker
Rip Torn ... Lt. George Miller

Description: A US Army Colonel, William Edwards, is tasked with investigating the conduct of Major Harry Cargill while incarcerated during the Korean War. Cargill is accused of aiding and abetting the enemy by admitting to atrocities and then preaching communist propaganda to the men in his hut. Edwards' job is to make a recommendation to General Connors on what, if any, charges should be laid. The scuttlebutt is that Cargill is guilty and it's all an open and shut case. Edwards isn't convinced that Cargill is guilty of anything but the case is all the more complicated because the General's son was also in the same prisoners hut but died during captivity. Oddly, Cargill will do nothing to defend himself and as Edwards reviews the evidence, he becomes convinced that the men involved are hiding something...
