7/10
I haven't seen a whole lot of Hitchcock (just this, Psycho, Vertigo and Rear Window, I think) but this was the first one that failed to really blow me away. Unfair considering its competition, perhaps. I thought the premise was very interesting (two men committing each other's murders) but the execution didn't really stir me. There were some absolutely classic scenes though - the murder of Guy's wife shown as a reflection in the lens of her fallen eyeglasses, the climatic showdown on a merry-go-round, etc, but I was a bit underwhelmed on the whole.
