Viewing Notes

Another rewatch of a classic.

Great suspense.  The first time I saw this film was in the 1980’s during a re-release of Hitchcock films that had been unavailable for decades due to rights issues.  The audience screamed during the scene where Grace Kelly was searching Raymond Burr’s apartment and he suddenly appeared in the hallway.

This time around, I appreciated the comic relief from the great Thelma Ritter.  And Grace Kelly…OMG, was she beautiful.
