Three doubts and opinions after reading it once

(You can start watching at 1 hour and 18 minutes) 1. After the case, the husband spent cash frantically, spending 1 pound 1 pound, and lost more than 300 yuan. I think this is the most crucial point, because the detective here is suspicious. By cash, I can check it out, the detective is awesome, and why does my husband have to spend it so abnormally? ! Tell everyone this is stolen money? 2. The self-confidence of the detective, let's add the rhythm, I'm off the show. I saw the account through normal means, but didn't turn it over. After the husband made a stupid act, the detective took his wife's key and went in to turn over the bill. (1 hour 36 minutes and a half). Flip around the door to find a key, not difficult, I understand. But I always felt something was wrong. 3. The husband is indeed vicious, killing his wife to take the inheritance. I know that the performance of literary and artistic works cannot be used to measure the moral standard in life. When it comes to such adulterers and prostitutes, seeing their happy ending, I still can't let go. ————————————

(At point 2, I struggled to watch the clip over and over again. It turned out that it made sense, unless the heroine Margo deliberately didn’t open the door. Then I thought about it, it was the day before the death penalty, and I was called back without any warning, so there weren’t that many. Designed. Although there may also be a possibility of "anyway, they will die anyway, pretend they want to do what they want to do", but for the film, it is not interesting or even more ridiculous.

There are only 1 or 3 points left. I read other comments on the 3rd point, and I also found and thought that it was a deliberate pit created by the creator to make the audience feel sympathetic, so everyone began to expect this perfect murder of her husband, not because of To kill a good person and worry about "her", because of the problem of the wife's personality, the expectations of our audience actually promoted the plot here. I jumped out of the plot expression itself and began to admire this kind of thinking. There are many "little routines" in the movie, which will be revisited in the future.

Point 1 is still in doubt. - The above was recorded on the same day)

Dial M for Murder quotes

  • Tony Wendice: [on the phone to a lawyer] We had a burglary last night, and Margot was attacked. No, she's all right. But the man was killed, and the police are here now. And don't laugh... they're suggesting that Margot killed him intentionally!

    Chief Insp. Hubbard: [interrupting Tony] I wouldn't say that if I were you, sir.

  • Mark Halliday: When did you find out, sir?

    Chief Insp. Hubbard: Well, the first clue came quite by accident.

    [to Margot]

    Chief Insp. Hubbard: We discovered that your husband had been spending a large number of pound notes all over the place - it ran into over three hundred pounds - and it appeared to have started at about the time you were arrested. Now, I had to find out where he got that money, and how. Then I remembered that after you were arrested we searched this flat, and I saw a copy of his bank statement in that desk. So yesterday afternoon, I went to the prison and asked to see your handbag. While I was doing this, I managed to lift your latchkey. Highly irregular, of course, but my blood was up. And then this morning when your husband was out, I came back here to look at his statement. I never saw it... because I never got through that door. You see, the key that I'd taken from your handbag didn't fit the lock!
