1. The film is based on the 1936 novel "The Spinning Wheel" by Ethel Lina White. White excels at writing crime stories, and the protagonists are young women on the road—Miss Henderson in the film is the norm. Hitchcock had a soft spot for White's novel because it closely resembled an anecdote he had heard: it is said that in 1890, a mother and daughter from India were staying at the In a hotel in Paris, the mother fell ill in the room and was diagnosed with the plague by doctors. The daughter...

I didn't know what I was doing in the first 30 minutes, and the scene on the train became tense. It was quite Agatha Christie, but also cos Charlotte and Watson. Hijacking the dining car at tea time, there are only British people in the entire dining car, and the 'pacifism' of the British people's peculiar brain...

People don't evaporate out of thin air, especially on a galloping train. The setting in the first half is very interesting, and it suddenly brings up the suspenseful atmosphere. As a result, the political conspiracy theory in the second half is like playing. Hitchcock's sense of humor really overflowed in the early...

In addition to the suspense, there is also a slightly witty and light comedy temperament. Hitchcock's early European works are really different from the later Hollywood works. Is this growth as a director or is it a change due to the shooting...

It is rare for Mr. Xi to add comedy elements to a suspense film. The subsequent shootout clips looked funny because of the limited technology. The protagonist is a man and a woman + details full of clues are typical signs of Mr. Xi's style, and most of the later works also go away. this route. It's a pity that I couldn't find Hitchcock from the passers-by inside A, B, C, D -...

Who doesn't love a crime on a train? Hilarious and of little consequence. You got to love Michael Redgrave at his prime and the leading actress. 8.5 out of...

In the early works of Xi Pang, the suspense and comedy director style was very light, the description of the characters' hearts was very accurate, and the ridicule and criticism of the politics at that time were very powerful. The hand stretched out at 24 minutes and 58 seconds to explain the answer in the second half. It is very unlikely that the film with political demands of Xi Fatt in the later period is really what Xi Fatt wanted to make, but I personally don't like it. The last shootout...

After reading it, I found out that I have seen it. It is full of the cunning of the big white fat man broken to the bone... Recently I read "Lawrence Block" (Lawrence Block), which happened to be girl vanished, but that's a lot more...
