I Met a Murderer

I Met a Murderer is a 1939 British thriller film directed by Roy Kellino and starring James Mason, Pamela Mason, Sylvia Coleridge and William Devlin. A man murders his oppressive wife and flees from the police. He meets a young woman who suspects his identity as the murderer, but conceals this because she wants to use the story for a book.

Allmovie called it a "nerve-wracking British suspenser"; while TV Guide gave the film two out of four stars, noting, "Several novel twists in the tale of a fugitive on the run make this one fascinating."
