Povzetek:

Michael Ward (J. McGuire) mladi je novinar zaposlen u novinskoj agenciji, vezan uz ljupku kolegicu Jane (M. Tallichet) i prilično sređena života. Jedne večeri ugleda čovjeka nad beživotnim truplom i postane jedini svjedok umorstva, za koje je na prvi pogled jasno tko je kriv. Tijekom suđenja i iznošenja presude kojom je navodni ubojica, Briggs (E. Cook Jr), osuđen na smrt, Michaela muči nedostatak konkretnih dokaza. Uskoro je Michaelov susjed ubijen na isti način kao i prethodni nesretnik i Michael je uhićen...

Stranger on the Third Floor sugestivna je i dojmljiva kombinacija trilera i sudske drame; film koji se po svim stilskim karakteristikama može svrstati u tipičan primjer struje film noira (poglavito po smještanju radnje u gradski ambijent, po liku krivo optuženoga, po rasvjeti, kameri i montažnim postupcima). Priča je to o dvojici krivo optuženih za čije je sudbine kriv nesretan stjecaj okolnosti i tajanstveni ubojica kojemu nitko nije uspio pronaći trag (a u kojoj je ulozi izvrstan Peter Lorre, čest glumac Fritza Langa). Film je režirao američki redatelj Boris Ingster, a u ostalim ulogama nastupaju J. McGuire, M. Tallichet, C. Waldron i ostali. Vrijednost ovoga filma ubrzo je bila uočena, tako da ga se i danas često navodi kao prvi "pravi" film noir klasičnoga razdoblja ovog filmskog stila.
