Suspense presents “The Clock and the Rope,” episode 5, originally broadcast on CBS on December 5, 1947. Written by Louis Pollock and directed by William Spier, this sustaining-era broadcast stars Jackie Cooper as Henry Gilford, with Cathy Lewis and John McIntire.
Convicted murderer Henry Gilford waits on death row as the clock moves toward his execution. Through memories of his former work at a gas station, he recounts the disappearance of a witness who may hold the key to his fate.
Suspense presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
