Don't talk to strangers lightly!
This movie is different from Hitchcock's other movies, such as Psycho, Butterfly Dream, etc. It tells the audience who the murderer is right from the start. The process of committing the crime was completely recorded with the reflections on the victim's glasses. (The design of using glasses to reflect the crime to record the crime is very good.)
The general main line of this movie can be summarized as the male protagonist Gai's attempt to clear his suspicion of murdering his wife. The "wronged" point is common in Hitchcock's films. Probably because he was sent to the police station by his father when he was a child, although he didn't go to jail, because Hitchcock was wronged. And this wrongful experience has also become a very important source of inspiration in Hitchcock's films.
Starting from the tenant, the audience first misunderstood the identity of the protagonist again and again, and then to the thirty-nine steps to officially establish an image of being wronged. Including the heroine's boyfriend in Psycho, Avengement - you can tell by looking at the title. Going to the north by northwest, the whole actor was involved in the storm because he was wronged. In most of Hitchcock's films, there are always a few people who have been wronged.
The movie begins by telling us that Guy is wronged. The audience watches everyone's every move in the movie from the perspective of God, which is different from the thrill of not telling you the murderer, and letting the audience immerse themselves in the scene to solve the case at the same time as the protagonists. This method makes the audience nervous for the protagonist, so When I saw that Guy had finally cleared his suspicions, it was quite a refreshing feeling.
There are many small details in the movie, one of which surprised me the most is when Bruno walked out of the amusement park after killing people and helped a blind man to cross the road. What does this mean? Is Bruno actually a kind person? I don't think so, it's a sense of composure and extreme self-confidence. No guilt or fear at all. This point is enough to let the audience understand how scary and perverted Bruno is.
This movie is another Hitchcock classic. The last scene is very funny. In the same place, another person talks to Guy like Bruno in the same position, but this time he can learn it. Don't talk to strangers.
