worth it for the crane shot

Half of the thrillers and mysteries that have come out since Hitch's work don't have a tenth of the atmosphere and ingenuity that his does. This is unequivocally master filmmaking.

@galenmark I fully agree. To stop showing such stuff is to rewrite history and pretend it never happened. Just like in Orwell's 1984.

[galenmark]

Why would you find blackface offensive? It IS history! Thats what happened. Everybody's got a chip on their shoulder. There's nothing anyone can do anymore without offending someone.

[UhuraSong]

Liked the movie, but found the hotel band, with blackface on offensive.

[AtheistSpanker]

Cute movie but it was a bit hard as an American to get around the heavy accents and the lingo of that period. I think I was able to catch about 80% of what was said. Nevertheless, it was worth watching.

This was made 10,000 years ago before Hitchcock started making serious films with serious actors. You can almost sleep through this utterly forgettable stuff with amateur actors.

[Halenline]

Awesome movie. :)

Alfred Hitchcock has done it again. I absolutely enjoy anything he produced. He doesn't ever fail to put a twist. Young and Innocent is another good film.
