Walk East on Beacon! (1952)
The Red Scare had reached a fever pitch when director Alfred Werker (HE WALKED BY NIGHT) adapted this tale of Communist spies stealing secrets about the Manhattan Project. The source material was a Reader's Digest article by FBI director J. Edgar Hoover, and the movie shares Hoover's obsession with surveillance. The film made abundant use of location shooting with over 14 weeks of production throughout the northeast, providing a rare snapshot of an era of American life.
