Viewing Notes

All the right elements are here in this compact little thriller from Hitchcock, even if it doesn’t quite come together as well as it would in so many of his later films. I’m really surprised no one, including Hitchcock, ever remade this because the story is great. Glad to fill another hole in my early Hitchcock films.
