To Catch a Thief-8/10

I saw this classic old movie in the cinema, and I couldn't help but sigh that Hitchcock's movie is really good. The cinematography of this film is breathtaking. There are several things that surprised me. This turned out to be a film from the 1950s. Although there were technical limitations at the time, Hitchcock was always able to use different angles or make essays on colors to achieve what he wanted. Realistic effects, this kind of imagination is the most lacking in Hollywood today. In addition, the wonderful suspense and humorous dialogue of this film are also what I admire. Even the costumes of the male protagonist and the shocking temperament of the female protagonist impressed me deeply. The more old movies like this are really the better, and the chances must be enough for Hitchcock's movies.
