Sorry, Wrong Number
Capsule by Dave Kehr
From the Chicago Reader

To make a movie of Lucille Fletcher's classic radio play was really to betray its best idea: that sound, not sight, is the truly paranoid sense. Barbara Stanwyck plays the invalid woman who accidentally overhears a telephone conversation about a murder. Anatol Litvak directed this 1948 feature; with Burt Lancaster and Wendell Corey. 89 min.
