Shadow Of A Doubt Part 1/11

[alecamal]

I do not know how I was lucky enough to find this,my mother took my brother and myself to see this movie at the theater in albuquerque when i was seven,what a treat that was

I'm 21-year-old American media studies major. The other day I was chatting to my Greek grandmother and discovered that she was a big fan of Hitchcock in the fifties. We reminisced about the great films I know as "classics" which she went to see when they were new, and she told me she used to have a crush on Joseph Cotton when she was my age. It's amazing when you really connect to someone like that across sixty-odd years. This is the kind of stuff we should be talking to our grandparents about!

9:16 "Don't read too much, you'll ruin your eyes." But I thought old geezers always say "Maybe you should stop watching TV and read a book." I guess when TV came along, they thought books were the better of 2 evils.

WOW THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR UPLOADING THIS!! TERRIFIC CLASSIC!!



[macjimmi]

Very good movie. Thanks for sharing.

Well, look who's here! If it isn't Clarence Oddbody, AS2 from "It's A Wonderful Life!" That's right! The actor who played Charlotte's father also played George Bailey's (James Stewart) guardian angel, the one who shows George what the world would've been like if he had not been born.

[jeprice08]

I don't mean this as an insult, but this is how I see Joseph Cotten: Joseph Cotten - he's John Cena without the wrestling abilities. Did you notice that they both have the same two initials, J.C.? I can see some smart-aleck going, "So does Johnny Carson and J.C. Penney, what's your point?"

What's great about Hitchcock's movies is the lighting and settings are so splendid you can mute the sound and just look at it. Each scene is like a painting I'd hang on my wall.

[unclepup]

This film is the very essence of film noir. Part of its greatness is that large portions of it were filmed on location in Santa Rosa, CA. When Miss Wright is walking down the street, it is Santa Rosa, not Universal City. Even location night scenes, unusual for the time. Please notice the "Santa Rosa" sign over the street in the final scenes. There in the 50s but it is gone now - it said "Redwood Highway" on the other side. The book "Footsteps in the Fog" has many photos of SR in the early 40s.

i love this movie. I have watched it for many times. I can learn life in the 1940s .

I really like Terasa Wright. She is so lovely and a good actress. I love the house they live in.

[Framblott]

I read that someone asked Alfred Hitchcock which of his movies was his favorite. He said it was this one. Maybe someone could authenticate this.

[dontlayeggs]

@Framblott yes, that is often claimed to be his favourite movie (from his own work). The book about Hitchcock life and work "It's only a movie" (Chandler, 2005) also quotes Hitchock as "Shadow of a doubt" being his favourite.Chandler has written her book mainly based on conversations with Hitch and his wife Alma Reville Hitchcock.

@lisadiane10001 You're very welcome. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[queenlvr46]

I don't believe that this film is underrated - just not as well-known as it should be. Those who know it acknowledge its greatness.

[dr12379]

Joseph Cotten is so beautiful.

[fightinside1]

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Best. Hitchcock. Film. EVER. Even Hitchcock himself thought so.

Gotta love Joseph Cotten

[southernbrooklyngal]

@gonameaspoon well said, my friend. I think this film is so underrated

[starbirdblue]

to bad they dont make any good murder mysteries .like hitchcock and agatha ,,ive read some good books and there is some good storys to be made into movies ,,but they just keep remaking the same crap..

[fordlandau]

Great movie. Uncle Charlie is a psychopath. He keeps cigars in his breast pocket. The police are totally inept. The little girl is reading 'Ivanhoe'. The adults are all fools. The Hitchcock irony of nothing really being as it seems.

[DavAvantgarde]

Again a Great Movie posted by you!! Thanks!!!

Thanks for uploading.

[meilly2002]

thanks for posting this..one of my favorite hitchcock films

[johneunson]

i had the great privilege of seeing t.wright at the edin. film fest. many years ago. she did a 'frame by frame' introduction / discussion about this movie and an insight into working with hitchcock. this is one of the great movies. the understated evil that permeates the movie is masterful. hitchcock at his best. thank you for posting this classic.
