phone murder

It felt so good to watch a movie before, a scene related to the theme, the title of the movie is released, and the movie starts

Is the opening scene of the police on the street a studio shot?

I hate using lines to explain information the most. The heroine said that the hero is a crime novelist, and that the person who wrote the letter told his husband that he explained it through lines.

Letter word printing this trick is also used in North by Northwest

The application of Hitchcock's "door" element reveals the meaning

The one who walked over after the phone call and picked up the gloves on the ground and put them on the sofa was too deliberate. It only had the function of telling the audience information, but it had no role in the characters in the movie. The display of functional things should be related to the characters in the plot.

Know a person so clearly

Slowly let the characters involved in the incident know the intention of the murderer, and only then do they realize that the incidents they have done have put themselves in danger, such as the poison in the wine. Hitchcock's script structure is used too much by latecomers

The wife tells her lover about herself and her husband, and the husband tells the car seller about himself and his wife, taking care of each other and making up for it

The car seller turned around to talk about soot, was told that meeting him turned things around, the car seller turned his head, this turned his head and played the soot just to emphasize the turn, the lesson is that if you want to emphasize something in the bland Something or a certain sentence, let the emphasized carrier do one thing to pave the way for the following emphasis

This kind of male protagonist and car seller arranges the paragraphs completely in advance, and many movies are learning later

This scene of murder is really good. It completely uses the reverse solution to solve the case. Even if the police catch him and explain to the police how the male protagonist instructed him to do it, the police will not believe it.

The audience hopes that what the male protagonist tells the car seller is not the whole of the design, and there is still one hand left, hoping that the car seller will make mistakes in the execution or save a hand, anyway Hitchcock has already told the audience, the audience is not willing to follow the steps

The role of the crime novelist is great

It's really not what the author of the crime thinks

The male protagonist goes back to his wife to open the door, and the writer turns his back in the foreground. At this time, the audience sees the action of putting the key in the male protagonist's hand, but the audience does not know whether the writer sees it or not. the writer saw

Hitchcock high light ratio, dark tone, highlighting the murderer, body part bright, face dark, always beating at the camera, very depressed, used in the rear window

This kind of language has been told to the audience in advance, and the next step is the development of the plot. The audience's expectation is whether the two will match or there will be any deviation.

The phone rang and the hostess answered the phone, the track went from the front of the hostess to the back of the hostess, and then picked up a killer and the hostess in the same frame

Damn, it won't be the male lead who strangled the female lead next, and then pretended to be the murderer who killed his wife.

The wife pushed open the window and ran out with the scarf tied on her. Others saw her

Hitchcock used the shadow to explain the information, the male protagonist came home for the first time, cut the door, the female protagonist and the writer's shadow separated, the door opened and the male protagonist entered. After the incident, the male protagonist hid the key in the female protagonist's pocket and saw the female protagonist's shadow. Come here, the man quickly put it away and evacuate

I thought he was going to kill his wife and frame it for the murderer

The police officer asked why the female protagonist didn’t call the police. The male protagonist was behind the police officer, with two faces in one picture and two expressions

The heroine is being judged, sitting there, the light on her face is changing, different emotions

Hahaha, the writer's falsification turned out to be true

One pound of money in that box, and the plot goes on simultaneously inside and outside the house

The police put the key to test him?

Hahaha, the male protagonist began to answer the police with real time

The police are handling a case and you broke into the house without permission?

The killer put the key back in its place,,,, the body is his own key

Really the heroine is broken

The police relayed to the audience the state of the male protagonist thinking about the key

It's too detoured, too unreal. As far as the police's clues are concerned, it can't stand up. The police's verification that the heroine and the hero open the door can be regarded as opening the door with the killer. Outside the situation, that is, as the writer said, "because the story is according to the author's thoughts. development, but not in real life"

Seeing that the last barrage was a discussion about extramarital affairs, many people hoped that the male protagonist would win

    Oh my God, this old-fashioned movie is so beautiful and cute. The abrupt but majestic music movie tone but the cadence of the dialogue is blurred but the texture is full of pictures. The picture is retro and charming. The plot is not too much spoiler. The key part is simple and wonderful (Tony turned on the light and saw everyone's faces, I was so excited that I almost screamed) The reversal of the second half is enough to see the arrangement of this case Sincere enough! like!

    It's so beautiful! Although the clue of the key is a bit too complicated, it seems to require all the characters to explain continuously. . The murderer brother is pitiful. . Grace Kelly is indeed beautiful

Dial M for Murder quotes

  • Tony Wendice: What makes you think he came in by this door?

    Chief Insp. Hubbard: His shoes.

    Tony Wendice: His shoes?

    Chief Insp. Hubbard: The ground was soaking wet last night. If he'd come in by the garden, he'd have left mud all over the carpet. As it is, he didn't leave any marks at all, because he wiped his shoes on the front doormat.

    Tony Wendice: How can you tell?

    Chief Insp. Hubbard: It's a fairly new mat, and some of its fibers came off on his shoes.

    Tony Wendice: Oh, but surely...

    Chief Insp. Hubbard: And there was a small tar stain on the mat, and some of the fibers show that as well. There is no question about it.

  • Chief Insp. Hubbard: There is evidence however that he was blackmailing you.

    Tony Wendice: Blackmail?

    Mark Halliday: Yes, I'm afraid it's true, Tony.

    Chief Insp. Hubbard: And you suggest that he came in by the window. And we know that he came in by that door.

    Margot Mary Wendice: But he can't have come in that way. That door was locked. And there are only two keys. My husband had his with him, and mine was in my handbag. Here.

    Chief Insp. Hubbard: You could have let him in.
