The Master of Suspense scores again. Every single scene is very well-made and, appropriately, oozes with suspense.

Just a classic fun murder thriller. Who do you root for? The murderer? It's quite the ride.

Not best Hitchcock's. It still has his suspense signature. His double-cross, jealousy, greed, and revenge. Kelley is beautiful!
