Hostile Witness

A highly regarded English lawyer, Simon Crawford (Ray Milland) is devastated when he finds out that his daughter has been killed in a hit-and-run accident. The driver is still at large, and Crawford becomes obsessed with tracking the person down. After a surprising turn of events, Crawford is put on trial for the death of a neighbor, who also happened to be a judge. Initially represented by a younger lawyer, Crawford eventually defends himself in court, despite not having an alibi.
