The Fallen Idol
The suspense is almost unbearable…
Directed by Carol Reed
Produced by London Films Productions
A tense psychological drama centered on a child's disillusionment as he discovers the moral complexity and deception lurking beneath the adult world he admires.
Phillipe, the son of an ambassador in London, hero-worships his father's butler Baines. His perception of the man changes when he accidentally discovers the secret that Baines keeps and witnesses the consequences that adults' lies can cause.
