Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Crossfire is a 1947 Film Noir directed by Edward Dmytryk, starring three men named Robert: Robert Young, Robert Mitchum, and Robert Ryan.A man named Samuels is found beaten to death in his apartment. Detective Finlay (Young) first focuses on a young soldier, Corporal Arthur Mitchell, who'd been seen in Samuels's company earlier that night and whose wallet was found in Samuels's couch. The leader of Mitchell's unit, Sergeant Keeley (Mitchum), doesn't believe that Mitchell could possibly be a killer, so he investigates the murder himself. Eventually suspicion shifts from Mitchell to another member of the unit, Montgomery (Ryan), who'd also interacted with Samuels that night— and who turns out to have his own motive for murder.One of the first Hollywood films to deal with the topic of antisemitism, Crossfire became something of a Dueling Movies example along with Gentleman's Agreement, another major 1947 release exploring the same theme.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Badass Boast: Keeley, when being questioned by Finlay. All the better for being delivered in Robert Mitchum's perpetually sleepy-eyed murmur. | |

Bluffing the Murderer | |
| Crossfire / int_de5e9f69 | comment |
Bluffing the Murderer: Montgomery kills Floyd, the only witness to his murder of Samuels. Finlay, who has no hard evidence against Montgomery, devises a ruse. Leroy, another soldier, leads Montgomery to believe that Floyd is actually still alive, then shows Montgomery a paper with the address of the boarding house Floyd is at. Montgomery then shows up at Floyd's room, claiming to have been sent there by Leroy—except that Leroy gave him the wrong address. Montgomery's arrival at the right room proves that he was there before and catches him out as the murderer. | |

Absence Makes the Heart Go Yonder | |
| Crossfire / int_e67ff203 | comment |
Absence Makes the Heart Go Yonder: Keeley (Mitchum) is rather philosophical about the possibility that his wife may have stepped out on him while he was away at war. | |
