Intruder in the dust contains a distinct and ever changing plot that shifts throughout the story. This is prevalent, especially, when the band of justice-promoting civilians find Crawford Gowrie’s grave switched by his murderous brother.

Intruder in the Dust makes a great movie with it’s constant sense of mystery.
