Loved this film!

Rating: Null/10 (8 September 1999)

After the third or fourth time viewing this film -it's better than ever. Each time I see something new to rave about. The scene where Grace Kelly first appears, bending down to kiss a sleeping Stewart . . .her face fills the screen, then the slow motion move towards the kiss. Hitchcock loves to linger on those kisses! He did the same thing in Notorious with Bergman and Grant. Bizarre as he could be, Hitchcock knew how to bring out the sensuality of his actors/actresses.
Tension abounds in this film, especially in the last half. The scene with the flashbulbs was brilliant (pun not intended). And Thelma Ritter's parting shot and double take: "I don't want any part of it," was hilarious. Great cast, great directing!
