    The Fallen Idol

    When Baines' wife is found murdered and Baines is implicated, Philippe, an impressionable young boy idolizes Baines, tries everything to point the investigation away from Baines but incriminates him instead in what was, in fact, an accidental death.

  • Critic Reviews of "The Fallen Idol"

    Steven Rea Philadelphia Inquirer

    The Fallen Idol finds innocence and inquisitiveness at odds with corruption, violence, desire, deceit - all the stuff that grown-ups trade in.

    Alan Scherstuhl Village Voice
    May 25, 2016

    The Fallen Idol stands as one of the great films about looking, about perspective, about the way we watch and interpret not just film plots but each other.

    Colin Covert Minneapolis Star Tribune
    October 19, 2006

    Masterful 1948 suspense thriller.

    Michael Wilmington Chicago Tribune
    August 25, 2006

    As a portrait of the sometime destructiveness of innocence and as a sharp fresco of post-war Britain, this movie is a little masterpiece, an idol that has never fallen.

    Chris Vognar Dallas Morning News
    June 29, 2006

    It's a masterful and unsentimental child's-eye view of the cold, hard adult world.

    Eleanor Ringel Gillespie Atlanta Journal-Constitution
    June 15, 2006

    An indelible portrait of childhood's confusions, disillusionments and inevitable lost innocence.

    Gerald Peary Arts Fuse
    June 13, 2016

    The Fallen Idol is one of the best achieved examples in cinema of seeing the world through the eyes of a child.

    Matt Prigge Metro
    May 26, 2016

    In some ways an even more brilliant contraption than "The Third Man," and with a third act that might be superior, too.

    MFB Critics Monthly Film Bulletin
    February 16, 2016

    The film is first-class entertainment.

    Sean Axmaker Turner Classic Movies Online
    January 01, 2009

    ... one of the great films of innocence lost and a powerful portrait of the powerlessness of children in the adult world, where they are so often ignored or discounted.

    Dennis Schwartz Ozus' World Movie Reviews
    December 09, 2006

    It's a gripping mystery story involving adult secrets, childhood lies and betrayal as part of the human equation.

    Christopher Null Filmcritic.com
    November 14, 2006

    separates itself from what would otherwise be a rather rote drama/thriller.
