Snobbish but attractive

This movie was directed in 1935 by Alfred Hitchcock who was the best director of the history of horror movies.

The "thirty nine steps" talks about "a wrong man" who was hunted down for knowing the information, but actually he knew just little.The story is only over an hour, but it is very compact, with more than a dozen scenes linked together.In the end of the film, Mr. Memory died of talking about the spy organization of thirty nine steps, followed by the role act asked him about the intelligence, which i didn't know whether it's a joke of Hitchcock.

Actually, I am not satisfied of this film because it didn't talk about how the mysterious woman died, why Mr. Memory would told the intellgence to the spy organization.( now I think i know why). The plot between role man and role woman fell into the cliche,but i like it.....

So strenge it is that director didn't appeard in this film, but it doesn't matter, I still love this butterball!!!!
