#ShadowOfADoubt retains its urgency precisely because its interrogation of hierarchical power structures remains piercingly relevant. Uncle Charlie’s declaration, “The world’s a hell!”, becomes an irreversible verdict in #Hitchcock’s universe, stripping away the luxury of denial. boxd.it/9MhwHT

@DrSuzanne Just the way they twirled at the last moment reminded me of shots of people waltzing. 🤷‍♂️ 😀 I guess in the last moment she decided to lead.

So, that scene on the train, where they're struggling before he falls, it was almost like they were dancing. Is that what the waltz reference was to?

I can’t remember where I read it but that David Lynch took a lot of inspiration for “Fire Walk with Me” from “Shadow of a Doubt”

The murder conversation was very “There is a Light that Never Goes Out” (youtu.be/3r-qDvD3F3c?si=zPH-9C)

People just don't talk about their preferred approach to murder like they used to.

@MatthewTitus88 there’s a mostly lost silent serial (The Iron Claw, i think???) where when I adjusted the ransom to today’s $$ was something crazy like nearly a billion dollars😱

A smidge late but here for “Shadow of a Doubt”

Four posters for the 1943 Alfred Hitchcock noir film “Shadow of a Doubt” from The USA, Italy, Sweden and Belgium.

The misdirections in Hitchcock’s Shadow of a Doubt are not so much red herrings as they are red flounders. Young Charley’s initial telepathic connection with her uncle disappears. Hume Cronyn’s creepy obsession with how to commit murder goes nowhere. And the waitress in the nightclub purrs “I could die for a ring like that” in front of Uncle Charley but is not seen again. But despite all this subterfuge, it’s still a brilliantly suspenseful film.
