From a pretty big Hitchcock fan... one of his worst


I own 24 Alfred Hitchcock films: 10 of the pre-1940 British films and 22 he made after that. Out of the 32 I own, this is certainly in the bottom 5.

I thought the story and dialogue was weak and the direction of Hitchcock was the weakest I've seen. Definitely not one of his underrated films like many say.

Yeah. No master of suspense in this one. A big boring mess.

I think a few of his British films and "The Trouble With Harry" and "Torn Curtain" are Hitchcock's 5 worst films.

The Trouble With Harry? That one was entertaining.
