Excitement beyond words!
A piercing Hitchcockesque thriller, The Thief is about an American Communist spy who kills an FBI agent and is haunted by his guilty conscience. The most unique suspense story of the sound era, without a single word spoken! Brilliant production with beautiful photography in New York, Washington, D.C., and other East Coast locations. A product of the Cold War era when Communists were infiltrating all phases of American life. Academy Award-winner Ray Milland stars in this moody film noir masterpiece.

"Ray Milland's performance is remarkable!  The Hollywood Reporter

Editor's Note
This spy thriller set in New York City sets itself apart from the thousands of others in the genre through one unique twist--no dialogue. A Hitchockian suspense film, THE THIEF tells the story of a Communist spy. After killing an FBI agent who is after him, this "yellow" fellow becomes a prisoner of his guilt.
