Spencer Tracy gives a wrenching performance as Joe Wilson, a scrupulously ethical young man whose every belief is shattered when a chance event makes him a victim of vigilantism. Mistaken for for a kidnapper, he`s arrested and jailed in a small town, where politics, boredom, and opportunism breed vicious rumors that explode into savagery. Nearly roasted in his cell, Wilson escapes, only to emerge embittered, bent on revenge.... and thought to be dead. Working through his brothers, he brings the mob to justice -- but as twenty-two people are about to be sentenced to hang for his "murder", he is forced to confront the morality of his revenge
