Two average people fall into strange and dangerous situations, one being a platinum blonde in a Hitchcockian film so carefully measured, so understated that if the story of a scene can be told with no words, then we will hear no words.
Two average people fall into strange and dangerous situations, one being a platinum blonde in a Hitchcockian film so carefully measured, so understated that if the story of a scene can be told with no words, then we will hear no words. In this way, it’s pure cinema. It’s a flow of sequences that build a dark, quiet stairway of tension, yet they’re also thoroughly self-contained because they’re so finely and fully attuned to setting, atmosphere and the inside and outside of every character in these very moments.
