Under Capricorn **** (1949, Ingrid Bergman, Joseph Cotten, Michael Wilding, Margaret Leighton, Cecil Parker) – Classic Movie Review 452
‘Mystery, murder and passion from the master of suspense’. Yes, the 1949 British historical thriller Under Capricorn is business as usual from Alfred Hitchcock, but with a little bit of a twist. It is not […]
I Confess **** (1953, Montgomery Clift, Anne Baxter, Karl Malden) – Classic Film Review 447
Alfred Hitchcock’s 1953 film noir-style thriller film I Confess, set and filmed on location in moody Quebec City, is a worthy and watchable but glum experience. There is too much internal introspection for an exciting […]
Foreign Correspondent ***** (1940, Joel McCrea, Laraine Day, Herbert Marshall, Albert Bassermann, George Sanders, Eduardo Ciannelli, Robert Benchley, Harry Davenport, Martin Kosleck) – Classic Movie Review 446
Foreign Correspondent (1940) is one of Alfred Hitchcock’s finest classic movies, yet it is not as well known as some of his other masterworks. The reason for that is almost certainly only that it doesn’t […]

Alfred Hitchcock’s purringly smooth, thoroughly enjoyable 1954 escapist romantic comedy-mystery has the inestimable benefit of starring the director’s two favourites, Cary Grant and Grace Kelly. As a thriller, it’s at the opposite end of the […]
The Paradine Case **** (1947, Gregory Peck, Ann Todd, Charles Laughton, Alida Valli, Louis Jourdan, Charles Coburn, Ethel Barrymore) – Classic Movie Review 442
Based on the 1933 novel by Robert Smythe Hichens, Alfred Hitchcock’s 1947 American film The Paradine Case is a twisty, talky and stagey but oddly compelling courtroom thriller, with an excellent cast of stars in […]
Suspicion ***** (1941, Cary Grant, Joan Fontaine, Cedric Hardwicke, Nigel Bruce, Dame May Whitty, Isabel Jeans, Leo G Carroll) – Classic Movie Review 441
Alfred Hitchcock’s richly enjoyable and likeable 1941 thriller Suspicion (1941) is a sweaty exercise in anxiety. Both stars Cary Grant and Joan Fontaine are at the peak of their career, powers and attraction. In the […]
