  • During the shooting of "Imperial Soul", Alfred Hitchcock divided a film into eight sections, covering the black screen with a close-up of the character's back or the lid, or using the character's sight as the editing point.
  • Alfred Hitchcock adopted the "one mirror to the end" shooting method in "Imperial Soul". In order to achieve the effect, all the cast and crew conducted a 10-day rehearsal before the film was officially filmed.
  • Because of the color of the sky, the crew spent 9 days reshooting the film.
  • All the shooting scenes of "Imperial Soul" were completed in a small room.
  • The first time the film was shot, the radio equipment was abandoned and only the picture was taken. The second time the film was taken, the camera was dropped and only the sound was taken; then, the production staff combined the sound and the picture in the post-production stage.
  • "Imperial Soul" is the first color film shot by Alfred Hitchcock. In order to avoid the tendency of overuse and chaotic use of colors, Hitchcock reduced the use of colors in the film.
  • When Alfred Hitchcock saw that the timing and plot of the script coincided with each other, he decided to shoot the film as a one-shot movie.

    As expected of a master of suspense, a simple scene can set off such a tense atmosphere. And the whole movie is not just the beginning of a scene! Such a long shot is something I've never seen before!

    After watching so many Hitchcock films, I finally found the feeling in this one. The story is actually very simple. It only uses dialogue to promote the plot to create a tense atmosphere. The whole film is single scene without being boring. Xi Fat's ability to move the camera is indeed a master.

Rope quotes

  • Brandon: Determined to get drunk, aren't you?

    Phillip: I am drunk.

    Brandon: And just as childish as you were before when you called me a liar.

    Phillip: You had no business telling that story.

    Brandon: Why did you lie anyway?

    Phillip: I had to! Have you ever bothered for just one minute to understand how someone else might feel?

    Brandon: I'm not sentimental if that's what you...

    Phillip: No, that's not what I mean; but it doesn't matter. Nothing matters... except that Mr. Brandon liked the party. Mr. Brandon gave the party. Mr. Brandon had a delightful evening. Well, I had a rotten evening!

    Brandon: Keep drinking, and you'll have a worse morning.

    Phillip: At least if I have a hangover, it'll be all mine!

  • Brandon: I've always wished for more artistic talent. Well, murder can be an art, too. The power to kill can be just as satisfying as the power to create.
