It was Hitchcock's first work, and I actually used it instead of the family carnival movie and released it in front of the elders, but the final result was good
The conclusion is that it is a high-quality classic suspense movie. In the era of limited technology, it is more obvious that the camera language, background music, and the actors' micro-acting skills. The content of the whole play is relatively compact, and there are a few scenes that impressed me deeply:
1. The section where the male protagonist goes down with a razor, from the white quilt to the sleeping face of the female protagonist, observing the doctor's face from a first-person perspective while drinking milk, a close-up of the knife, and the doctor lying on the sofa in the morning The shot, a series of suspense creations are very exciting, and it also fully explains some of the pits left by the easy exposure of the male protagonist's identity, which is very exciting!
2. The scene where the heroine finally confronts the murderer is ingenious and gripping, fully explaining the heroine's self-confidence + worry about the two responsible mentalities that existed at the same time, the suicide ending was neat and tidy, leaving no regrets
3. The realistic lens of the dream is amazing, with the color of postmodernism
4. The male and female protagonists kiss for the first time and give birth to an open heart. The door is opened one by one. This freehand shot is very intentional
I feel that the fly in the ointment is: the rhythm of entering is still slow and procrastinated, as if the old films have this problem?
All in all, it's very exciting, and I decided to watch all Hitchcock's works in one go.
