Thrilling (and somewhat sanitized) depiction of the FBI's formative years, as seen through the eyes of agent John "Chip" Hardesty (James Stewart). As narrator, Hardesty recounts his life in the bureau, from his encounters with gangsters like Baby Face Nelson and John Dillinger, to the KKK, Nazi spy rings, and communist agents, plus amazing looks inside the government's crime labs. With Vera Miles, Murray Hamilton, Nick Adams; based on the book by Don Whitehead. 149 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English, Spanish, French.
