Dated like many other Hitchcock Movies


Apart from a few classics of Hitchcock (Rope, Rear Window, Psycho, Vertigo) this movie like many other movies by Hitch are really boring for contemporary audience. You can right away guess the ending or the story doesn’t make much sense or the production lacks the quality of modern blockbusters to keep you interested. North by Northwest, A Man who Knew Too Much, The Birds, etc. were certainly great films at the time but they can’t really compete with new action/adventure/mystery movies. Interesting for historical reasons but not really material for entertainment.
