If you get this woman, you will have no regrets in this life

The female protagonist has beauty, courage and strategy, and also has a good knowledge of fashion, and has a complete personality in all aspects. If she wins this woman, she will have no regrets in this life.

This film eliminates the small plots in other windows. In fact, the main line is quite simple. Hitchcock's most iconic suspense is not very good in this film. Wife-killing plans to chop the saw-blade brother with a thorough plan. He came to catch the male lead empty-handed. He also ate a few flashballs, which is really unconvincing.

The most pitiful is the male protagonist. The photographer with both fame and fortune is paralyzed at home. The telephoto lens is a voyeur and the flash is used as a flasher. In the end, his legs are completely paralyzed. The poor wife can only watch the bazaar at home.

The voyeuristic psychology and the visualized perspective that people talk about in this film are indeed unconventional. Apart from the various bugs in this film, I think the joyous elements of the comedy have dilute the suspense or horror effect and appear not serious.
