The Stranger

The Stranger is a Crime / Drama movie where someone makes a terrible life choice and the consequences arrive right on schedule. The rating says it has enough going for it to justify a look, provided the premise is your kind of trouble. Expect everyone carries enough emotional baggage to trigger an airline surcharge. It is not trying to solve cinema, cure society or earn a medal for restraint; it just needs the premise to work, the momentum to hold, and the audience to avoid checking the clock every six minutes.
