A scene from Stranger on the Third Floor 1940
District Attorney

So now you believe both murders were committed by the same man, eh?

Mike

Yes, I do.

District Attorney

Um... maybe you're right. As you pointed out, there are certain similarities between the two crimes. But you missed one. Perhaps the most important. Both murders were discovered by the same man - you.

Mike

What are you driving at?

District Attorney

Tell me, has there ever been any insanity in your family?

Mike

Listen, I'm as sane as you are. And if you think I had anything to do with it, you're crazy.

In this scene

DA District Attorney Charles Waldron
