Movie Info

Henry Hathaway directed this high-tension drama about a man teetering on the verge of self-destruction and how his dilemma affects those around him. Robert Cosick (Richard Basehart) is a desperate and despondent young man who has never gotten along with his parents (Robert Keith and Agnes Moorehead) and believes his girlfriend Virginia (Barbara Bel Geddes) no longer loves him. Cosick creeps onto the ledge of a skyscraper in downtown New York and threatens to jump; for the next 14 hours, Dunnigan

A remarkably compact motion picture... those who have no memory of that or any similar case will find gripping suspense, absorbing drama and stinging social comment in this film.

Simple yet strangely compelling...

It follows along the lines of Ace in the Hole by building most of the tension from the reaction shots of the bystanders.

The film's finest moments come at the very beginning.

Estréia de Grace Kelly no cinema, Horas Intermináveis é irregular, mas interessante.

Audience Reviews for 14 Hours

A really great film noir selection. About a man who climbs out on the ledge of a hotel 13 stories up in NYC threaten to jump, but a traffic cop becomes his friend and attempts to talk him out of it. Grace Kelly makes a short appearance here and there. Paul Douglas show outstanding acting qualities and caring that was once found in most people back in the day, not like today where its every man out women for himself. 4 stars

A very suspenseful movie about a young man who is trying to commit suicide and the people who are trying to get him to come down from the ledge. All taking place in 14 hours. A good movie with good actors.
