Movie Reviews of Sorry, Wrong Number

Movie Review: 3.5 stars out of 4
Summary: 4 Stars

The Bottom Line:

Though Sorry Wrong Number can sometimes feel a little stagebound (its radio origins are often noticable), it's a taut and intriguing thriller which has held up well over the years and can still shock you with its cruel punchline.

Summary of Sorry, Wrong Number

A bedridden heiress phones her husband and overhears two men plotting her murder. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 08/19/2003 Starring: Barbara Stanwyck Leif Erickson Run time: 89 minutes Rating: Nr Director: Anatole Litvak
Barbara Stanwyck and Burt Lancaster star in Sorry, Wrong Number, an odd telephonic thriller that starts off with a bang. Stanwyck, playing a shrill invalid, is at home alone and phoning around to find her husband. Thanks to a crossed wire, she overhears a murder plot, but she can barely get anyone to pay attention to her, let alone believe her. The rest of the film is played out in telephone conversations and flashbacks as our increasingly frightened heroine tries to find her husband and unravel the murder. Stanwyck, as always, gives a terrific performance, managing to make her character both unlikeable and compelling at the same time. Lancaster, as her kept husband, is handsome, virile, and trapped all at once. The plot, expanded to a film from a tight, dark little radio play, wanders at times but gathers itself back together for a corker of an ending. --Ali Davis
