"Bad Day at Black Rock" - Spencer Tracy stars in this 1955 suspenseful drama about a man visiting a very small town that is trying to hide a secret.

Set after the end of WWII, Tracy encounters suspicion, hate and abuse by the likes of Robert Ryan (the big man in town), Ernest Borgnine and Lee Marvin (Ryan's "enforcers") and is helped somewhat by a more compassionate soul (Walter Brennan).

The superb cast speaks wonderful, taut dialogue and the sense of foreboding builds to a great climax.

Excellent movie and I highly recommend it. (This was my first time seeing it).
