The Clay Pigeon

It was pretty bad for WWII soldier Jim Fletcher (Bill Williams) to have woken up in a stateside naval hospital with his memories fragmented. It was worse when he learned he'd be court-martialed for informing on his fellow POWs to the Japanese. After skipping out─and enlisting the reluctant aid of a war buddy's widow (Barbara Hale)─Fletcher embarks on a dangerous pursuit to learn who sets him up, and why. Richard Fleischer's crisp noir co-stars Richard Quine, Richard Loo, Martha Hyer. 63 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono.
