The entire movie takes place in a Manhattan apartment. The scenario is very simple. The progression of the plot is all based on dialogue. In order to "play with the heartbeat" after a self-confessed perfect murder case, two talented Harvard students invited their classmates and school professors to have a party at their home, and they were finally played by Stewart, a film fanatic, as a suspicious person. The professor found clues, and as a result, the crime was exposed.
This film is Hitchcock's earliest color film, and it is also an original film in the use of long shots. The entire film only uses 11 shots, only 11 cuts, and a few are soft cuts (the editing method that shows the continuity of the shot by panning the lens to the dark place), which can be clearly seen on the screen There are only 4 editing scenes, and it can almost be regarded as a peculiar movie in one shot.
Two Harvard high school students are gay, but the movie did not explain. America was much more conservative then than it is now, and audiences weren't ready to accept homosexuality in movies.
In addition, the heroine's appearance is amazing, but this actor is unknown, and some information about her cannot be found on the Internet.
