"He's Anthony Bruno, a very smart guy"

The film itself can be regarded as an excellent film, editing template. What makes a classic movie a classic is not the high technology and star luxury it uses, but the ability to tell the story and how to explain the story to the point of engrossment. Hitchcock's ability to tell stories is first-rate, and his mastery of film shots and the switching of scenes are well reflected in this film. The plot is compact, the dialogue is witty, wits and courage are fought, and at the same time, it does not pretend to be mysterious. This is the essence of a good movie, and he is well-made and at the same time, he can take into account the business, clever ~

"The Train Strangers" is about Swapping murder trajectories, handsome tennis player Guy Haynes stumbles across a weirdo on a train. He knows that Guy is deeply divorced, has a tough, domineering wife, and has a father he hates. Proposes "exchange murder" - he, Bruno kills Guy's wife, and Guy, kills Bruno's father. Say it and act immediately. But Guy's integrity and loyalty made him strong against temptation and darkness. But Bruno, a child of a wealthy family, whose mother is a painter, has no worries about food and clothing, is knowledgeable, and is extremely intelligent, but has a quirky personality, dark psychology, biased values, pursuit of left-wing stimulation, ruthless and sleepy. Such a freak with a deformed personality can only be said to be a tragedy. He was gambling, gambling with his own destiny, gambling with his dignity, but unfortunately, he lost.

At the end of the film, Bruno still refused to let go of his dignity and speak the truth when he was dying. But in the end, when he closed his eyes, his downed hand gradually loosened, and he saw the evidence of the crime - a lighter. The lighter element runs through the whole film, which also makes the main axis of the film clear, the layers are clear, the story is full, and the plot is compact. Like~

PS: The male and female protagonists are very well matched, very beautiful~ There is a kind of classical temperament, reserved and elegant, restrained and passionate. Unfortunately, these qualities and temperaments are no longer seen in today's Hollywood film critics. So I began to understand more and more deeply why Audrey Hepburn has been the most perfect goddess in the world until today.
