What to say! When I don't know any professional knowledge, after watching a movie like this, it probably tells a story completely with the lens. The rhythm of the soundtrack and the rhythm of the movie are really tight. Maybe the times are progressing, so the suspense is not so suspenseful. The times are also regressing In the 1960s, films like this could be made. Why can't everyone tell a good story now? Actually, we don't have to look at deep themes. In fact, I think it's great to tell a story well. If we can't finish it in an hour and a half, we don't mind spending two and a half hours.

    I have seen it so many times in different movie "textbooks" that I expect too much. Compared with the chasing scenes in the wheat field and the rock climbing scenes, I feel that the train flirting scenes are more able to withstand the test of time, and the intense sexual chemistry is very strong. In fact, the footage from the train station is also very exciting. The unseen Kaplan is like the unwaited "Godot" and the unreachable "castle", with the absurd meaning of existentialism. The interaction between the hero and his mother reveals Hitchcock's subconsciousness. (Film Festival, 4K, giant screen)

    Hitchcock has a keen sense of humor and can always catch the audience's attention by accident.
