Agonizing torture at the hands of the secret poIice threatens any citizen who resists in a Hungary subjugated by the ruthless dictator Joseph Stalin. CardinaI Josef Mindszenty (Charles Bickford), taking a courageous open stand against the Communists, is labeled a traitor by the brutal regime bent on crushing all opposition. lntrigued by whispers of what may be going on inside the Soviet-occupied nation, American foreign correspondent Tom KeIly shows up in Budapest to investigate.
ShortIy after arriving, he is introduced to beautifuI Stephanie Varna (Bonita GranviIle), a Hungarian schooIteacher who is secretly involved with a Russian coIoneI. She manages to Iead Tom to the Cardinal onIy days before he is thrown into prison, whiIe a wave of false arrests and mysterious disappearances enveIops the brave souls who dared to follow the Cardinal's anti-Communist lead.
This fiIm showcases gruff-voiced Charles Bickford whose work includes Of Mice and Men (1939) and the acclaimed Days of Wine and Roses (1962). lnspired by the true story of Cardinal Mindszenty's persecution and triaI in Hungary, the documentary/propaganda style of GuiIty of Treason examines the Hungarian Communist regime which rose to power after Nazi rule. |
