yet more true blue american hitchcock. not much to say, though it was entertaining enough to keep me interested. maybe not quite as bad as expected. also, it marks the end of the hitchcock 'masterpiece' collection.

confusing, convoluted, overlong, horrible dialogue, and so so performances.  Hitchcock clearly didn't put any effort into it, like at all. 40/100

 

Done, finally watched all of them*
