Well

Rating: 2/10 (15 October 2002)

This was solid and I enjoyed it for the most part. One thing that took away from the film was Jimmy Stewart, he came off like a cry baby. I also had a hard time believing that a woman like Grace Kelly would waste her time with an old, out of shape, wimp. Stewart was good in Vertigo so I thought this would be similar, but his constant whining got to me. Stewart's physique was an embarrassment, can you say bird chest? And he is with Grace Kelly? I don't buy it. But if Jimmy Stewart's job in this role was to come across like a weak, egotistical, perverted twit, then he did good.

I know it sounds like I'm complaining, but overall this movie is worth watching. I don't think this is Hitchcock's best however, I would give that nod to North by Northwest. Hitchcock is ill, so watch this and enjoy, just don't let all the Stewartisms ruin it for you.
