Hitchcock's "Strangers on a Train" (Lux Radio Theatre)
Two strangers meet by chance. One conversation changes everything.
In this gripping radio adaptation of Strangers on a Train, based on the chilling novel by Patricia Highsmith, a casual encounter aboard a train leads to a sinister proposition: a “perfect” murder exchange: kill my problem, and I’ll kill yours.
At first, it sounds like a joke. But when one man takes the idea seriously, the game becomes deadly real. As paranoia tightens its grip, the innocent find themselves trapped in a nightmare of suspicion, manipulation, and escalating terror. With nowhere to turn and no way to prove the truth, the question becomes not just who is guilty...but who will survive.
On this journey, the tracks only run one way… straight into danger.
Cast:
Ray Milland, Ruth Roman, Olan Soule, Norma Varden
