As a Hitchcock fan this is one of the greastest double bills ever. It has the elegent Grace Kelly playing the victimised wife in a murderous plot with husband Ray Milland. And the sauve and sophisticated Cary Grant playing a wrongfully accused advertising executive. Recently remade with Michael Douglas, Dial M For Murder is a wonderfully acted film that was first performed on the stage. Ray milland is cunningly likeable as the husband as is Robert Cumming as the boyfriend. A nice little movie with a nice little second feature. North by Northwest is full of set pieces and twists that will have you gasping and wanting more. All together a great purchase.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS REVIEW IS FOR 'DIAL 'M' FOR MURDER ONLY:
One of the most absorbing and suspenseful of Hitchcock movies ever! No matter how many times this is viewed, it's still as fresh and as riveting as the first time around!
Ray Milland plays a husband who's been cheated upon by his rich wife. To get his revenge upon she and her lover, and to acquire his 'premature' inheritance, he plans her murder - but things go terribly wrong when everything backfires, and all over the most minute of details...
Grace Kelly stars as the unfortunate 'target', and Anthony Dawson plays the unusually 'nice' and handsome murderer to be (he can strangle me anytime!!) The reactions of some of the characters in this film are startlingly 'natural'. A classic example is how after being 'coerced' into the act, the would-be murderer is unable to look his victim in the eye whilst attempting to carry it out - a clever little detail!
Also stars John Williams and a 'bit part' for Patrick Allen.
Fantastic feature!
