Der Zwang zum Bösen (1959)
Chicago 1924: Die beiden aus reichem Hause stammenden Studenten Artie Strauss und Judd Steiner sehen sich als intellektuelle Übermenschen, die über den für das gemeine Volk erlassenen Gesetzen stehen. Um diese Überlegenheit zu beweisen, bringen sie einen kleinen Jungen um… einfach so.
