Description

A huge hit with crime fiction fans, this was the only film adaptation ever made based on writer Erle Stanley Gardner’s beloved character Doug Selby. Played here by Jim Hutton, Selby is a D.A. in a peaceful rural town where he finds himself having to unravel an apparent double-murder—of the same person. A story filled with action, twists and mystery--not to mention a wonderful cast that also includes Ed Asner, Nita Talbot and Leslie Nielsen.
