CONVICTED (Nov 30, 1949) Final Draft screenplay by William Bowers
[Hollywood]: Columbia Pictures, 1949. Vintage original film script, 11 x 8 ½” (28 x 21 cm.), printed wrappers, mimeograph, brad bound, 129 pp. on 130 leaves. Light stains to wrappers, a few light stains toward front and back of script, very good+.
Printed under working title ONE WAY OUT (with that title crossed out in ink and replaced with CONVICTED). This script contains revisions on three colors of paper dated up through December 98, 1949. There are a few underlinings in an unknown hand.
CONVICTED is a remake by director Henry Levin of the 1931 Howard Hawks film THE CRIMINAL CODE. This prison drama is the story of Joe Hufford (Glenn Ford), a man convicted of manslaughter. George Knowland (Broderick Crawford) is the warden who understands Hufford, helps him adjust to prison life and recognizes that he has a future after release.
Hufford witnesses the murder of an informer by another convict, Malloby (Millard Mitchell), but he sticks to the prison’s “silent code” and refuses to talk, even though it means he will be accused of the killing. He is locked in solitary confinement. In the end, the real murderer confesses and Hufford escapes the electric chair.
