The Cardinal

Matheson Lang stars as Cardinal de Medici in this 7-reel British film set in 15th-century Italy. The cardinal learns through confession that one of his most influential parishioners has committed a murder, but his sacred vows prevent him from disclosing it. His dilemma deepens when his own brother is arrested for the crime. Based on a play by Louis N. Parker, the story shares its central premise with Hitchcock's 1953 film I Confess.
