After an absence of four years, during which time he had been an amnesiac, the fourth man, Philip Vickers, returns home after regaining his memory. He tells of a "friend" who knocked him out, drugged him, and left him to die. Any one of the remaining men could be a suspect as Job Crandall, Bill Saul and Harry Bryce have all been interested in Philip's attractive 'widow', Angie. Unfortunately, Philip's return coincides with a murder and he becomes the main suspect. Angie joins forces with her husband to help solve the mystery and clear his name. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=A_Stranger_Came_Home&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Paulette_Goddard,_A_Stranger_Came_Home_publicity_(1954)_II.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cd/Paulette_Goddard%2C_A_Stranger_Came_Home_publicity_%281954%29_II.jpg/220px-Paulette_Goddard%2C_A_Stranger_Came_Home_publicity_%281954%29_II.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="271" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cd/Paulette_Goddard%2C_A_Stranger_Came_Home_publicity_%281954%29_II.jpg/330px-Paulette_Goddard%2C_A_Stranger_Came_Home_publicity_%281954%29_II.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cd/Paulette_Goddard%2C_A_Stranger_Came_Home_publicity_%281954%29_II.jpg/440px-Paulette_Goddard%2C_A_Stranger_Came_Home_publicity_%281954%29_II.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2223" data-file-height="2737" /></a><figcaption>Paulette Goddard in a publicity shot for <i>A Stranger Came Home</i>.</figcaption></figure> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Paulette_Goddard" title="Paulette Goddard">Paulette Goddard</a> as Angie</li> <li><a href="/wiki/William_Sylvester" title="William Sylvester">William Sylvester</a> as Philip Vickers</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Patrick_Holt" title="Patrick Holt">Patrick Holt</a> as Job Crandall</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Paul_Carpenter_(actor)" title="Paul Carpenter (actor)">Paul Carpenter</a> as Bill Saul</li> <li>Alvys Maben as Joan Merrill</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Russell_Napier" title="Russell Napier">Russell Napier</a> as Inspector Treherne</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Kay_Callard" title="Kay Callard">Kay Callard</a> as Jenny</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Patricia_Owens" title="Patricia Owens">Patricia Owens</a> as blonde</li> <li><a href="/wiki/David_King-Wood" title="David King-Wood">David King-Wood</a> as Sessions</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Jeremy_Hawk" title="Jeremy Hawk">Jeremy Hawk</a> as Police Sergeant Johnson</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Production">Production</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=A_Stranger_Came_Home&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Production"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The film was produced by <a href="/wiki/Hammer_Films" class="mw-redirect" title="Hammer Films">Hammer Films</a> at <a href="/wiki/Bray_Studios_(UK)" class="mw-redirect" title="Bray Studios (UK)">Bray Studios</a> in Berkshire.<sup id="cite_ref-Maxford_2019_70_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Maxford_2019_70-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> with sets designed by the <a href="/wiki/Art_director" title="Art director">art director</a> <a href="/wiki/J._Elder_Wills" title="J.
