Question
The above black and white movie (I believe the title is correct) was shown many years ago perhaps even in the 1950's. It showed a "stranger" at a boarding house that was mysterious. Each of the other guests had their own personal view of the stranger based upon what they individually saw and the movie was about these opinions. Each view was completely different than the next, from kind to being a murderer. It taught a valuable lesson about "judging a book by its cover." Who starred in this movie, and can it be purchased?

Answer
Don

I believe that the film you seek is :

General Electric Theater - "The Eye of the Beholder (1953)

Its an episode of the TV series

Please see here :

I cannot find anywhere to purchase, but it may be available on some niche` sites.

Hope this helps  :]
