Interesting. Not a piece to read if it spoils any films you haven't seen. On Suspicion, I see someone objects that the milk wasn't poisoned. But was it? Since one or the other of the heroine's visualisations of an incident has to be false, to what extent can we trust the reassuring one (the second one) to be real? |

Very interesting. YOUNG & INNOCENT I only finally saw around three or four years back, but I'd seen that long shot from it a few times before in excerpts. |

...I also like the scene in NORTH BY NORTHWEST where Cary Grant drops the book of matches down from above in James Mason's hideaway, and nearly gives himself away. |

Hmm. No mention of the scene in REAR WINDOW that I find the most chilling in all of Hitchcock: when Thorwald realises he's being surveilled and looks up -- right into the camera at Stewart. And at us. |
