Question
Mr. Popcorn guy,

I guess it goes without saying that I have exhausted my research abilities in trying to find the title to a movie I have seen in the past.  It would help if my memory wasn’t as limited.  I believe the movie was made in the 50’s and the opening scene took place in a courtroom with a man convicted of murder that was placed on the witness stand.  He knew that once he told his story no one would believe him.  The rest of the story, with few exceptions, were flashbacks to the story he was telling the courtroom.  A moment before the verdict was read he jumped out the window to his demise and then a camera shot to the verdict that read not guilty.  That’s all the memory I have to give.  If you could help in any way I would be very grateful and recognize your mad skills. Thanks

Matthew...

Not immediately finding anything on this... but the plot you describe sounds remarkaly like something you might find on "Twilight Zone" or "Alfred Hitchcock Presents." Are you sure this was a movie? Can you tell me anything else about it? Maybe you have seen one of the actors in some other film, perhaps? Any other info you can provide might help us scratch that itch!!!
