The Stranger is a 1946 film noir/drama starring Orson Welles, Edward G. Robinson, and Loretta Young. Welles also directed the film, which was based on a screenplay written by Victor Trivas. Trivas' work was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. Sam Spiegel was the film's producer, and the film's musical score is by Bronisław Kaper. It is believed that this is the first film released after World War II that showed footage of concentration camps. The Stranger was the only film made by Welles to have been a bona fide box office success on the first release (Citizen Kane had made back its budget and marketing, but not enough to make a profit).
The Stranger, also known as Stranded in Space, is a television movie made in 1973 as a pilot for a new television series, but was never picked up by a network.
The Stranger is a 1918 film featuring Oliver Hardy.
Made as part of a 168 hour (or one week) film festival. The production team had only four nights to shoot and were only shooting nights, not days. On one of those days some tree trimmers clipped a power line just as the sun was going down leaving the whole neighborhood without power for four hours.

Wilson releases Kindler's former comrade Meinike and follows him to Harper, Connecticut, where he is killed before he can identify Kindler. Now Wilson's only clue is Kindler's fascination with antique clocks; but though Kindler seems secure in his new identity, he feels his past closing in. Written by Rod Crawford

TV series pilot (series never launched). After a freak mishap, an astronaut finds himself on an almost precise copy of Earth (right down to the Plymouth cars).

Hunted and alone, the story traces the astronaut's efforts to evade capture and return home. Written by Leo L. Schwab
STRANGER chronicles the surreal journey of a no-named homeless drifter who meanders the back alleys, mean streets and lonely highways of this chaotic universe known as America. Along the way, we get an in depth character study of the man and the manic mazes of his mind, and it ain't pretty folks. Each frame is an angst-splattered canvas of urban grit and grime, seedy bums, rednecks, kinky prostitutes, and well, you get the picture. Written by SC
