Sorry, Wrong Number
Barbara Stanwyck and Burt Lancaster star in this classic adaptation of Lucille Fletcher's suspenseful radio play.
A young, bedridden neurotic woman, who has married a man from the wrong side of the tracks whom she has attempted to dominate completely, gets her wires crossed when making a call from her bedroom telephone and inadvertently overhears two men plotting a murder. Anxiously, Leona wades through telephone-company bureaucracy to trace the call, never catching on that the murder being planned is hers.
