A little unusual, but still another home run for Hitchcock!

Rating: 8/10 (9 July 2006)

I'm not too into the war movies, at least not the one's that get intensely into it. But Saboteur worked for me actually, Barry and his friend are just coming in from WWII, when they bump into a man who has dropped some items, they kindly and honestly give him his things back. But when there's a horrible fire and Barry's best friend is tragically killed and now he's getting the blame for the fire. Barry won't go without a fight until his has proved his innocence.
The most touching moment of the movie is when Barry is running, he is welcomed into a blind man's house who can see more than he's granted for. Without even judging him, the blind man is so kind an believes Barry's innocence and asks his niece, Patricia, to help him out. With some obvious patriot messages, this is still another great masterpiece by Hitchcock.
8/10
