An essay by film historian John DiLeo about the film The Fallen Idol (1948) starring Bobby Henrey, Ralph Richardson, Sonia Dredel and Michèle Morgan. Excerpted from John DiLeos Screen Savers II: My Grab Bag of Classic Movies, The Fallen Idol (1948): The Butler Didnt Do It. The Fallen Idol tells a more intimate story primarily from the focus of an eight-year-old boy. The films enthralling suspense is heightened by dual and parallel realities: what is actually happening, and what is perceived by the child to be happening, thus elevating a rudimentary domestic situation into an unusual and insightful look into a childs mind.
