MAN WHO HAD INFLUENCE, THE(1950)
In the set: 100 Greatest Mystery Classics

This is an episode of the Studio One TV series!
Really a simple story about a man who has too much
money for his son's good! The son has an accident
and a girl is killed! His father is determined to
get him out no matter who he hurts! BTW, this was
sponsered by Westinghouse, and all of the commercials
are presented here! B

A review from IMDb.com:

One of the lesser 'Studio One' entries, this
tale of a spoilt son of a rich and influential
man trying to cut through corruption to find
justice. Robert Sterling is OK in the lead
role - and he was in many similar teleplays
throughout the 1950s.

However the fact that this is live television
is shown by some tripping of lines (notably
by Stanley Ridges as the overbearing father),
and a noticeable lack of budget. As it stands,
this play is workmanlike enough, with decent
performances from Sally Hester as Sterling's
girlfriend, and Anne Marno (Bancroft) as the
hat check girl.

It's just that the tale is too predictable,
and therefore lacks interest. And the print
I saw had significant sound problems in parts
which meant some plot and dialogue was
missed - aside from that, this is an entertaining
enough hour. - didi-5
