The Crooked Road is a 1965 British film directed and co-written by Don Chaffey. It stars Stewart Granger, Robert Ryan and Janet Munro.[1] It is based on the 1957 novel The Big Story by Morris West.[2] An American journalist plans to expose as a crook the dictator of a small Balkan state, but finds himself framed for murder.
The film was shot in and around the city of Split and on the Adriatic coast of Yugoslavia (now Croatia) over two months.[3]
The New York Times said the film "bounces along nicely".[4]
