murderer
[TS]
00:09:04
◼

[TS]
00:09:28
◼

like we got it narrowed down to two guys
[TS]
00:09:30
◼
►
who has been murdering everybody what is
[TS]
00:09:33
◼
►
the evidence is there someone is like

◼
►
Schrodinger's cat evidence somewhere
[TS]
00:09:36
◼
►
that it's like it's definitely one of
[TS]
00:09:38
◼
►
these two guys the things that will one
[TS]
00:09:39
◼
►
later on is that they have the same
[TS]
00:09:41
◼
►
initials is the thing like when they
[TS]
00:09:43
◼
►
when they talk later on about like the
[TS]
00:09:44
◼
►
guy they captured his initials are also
[TS]
00:09:46

[TS]
00:12:49
◼
►
which I i think is again and a very
[TS]
00:12:51
◼
►
intentional thing that Hitchcock did
[TS]
00:12:53
◼
►
because that the terror in this movie is
[TS]
00:12:56
◼
►
what if you know something horrible

about someone that you previously loved

[TS]
00:13:30
◼

his cock master of plot not to
[TS]
00:13:32
◼
►
foreshadow but if you're if you're a
[TS]
00:13:34
◼
►
serial murderer i suggest watching out
[TS]
00:13:36
◼
►
for various forms of transportation that
[TS]
00:13:38
◼

just like your undoing it yeah and if

this movie as the as the next door
[TS]
00:13:48
◼
►
neighbor who has a fascination with true
[TS]
00:13:50
◼
►
crime and murders and he literally says
[TS]
00:13:54
◼
►
at that point when the news comes up
[TS]
00:13:55
◼
►
over the radio
[TS]
00:13:56
◼
►
well I guess that wraps up this case and
[TS]
00:13:59
◼
►
it's not like the rick moranis of this
[TS]
00:14:01
◼
►
i'm fascinated by the human Cronin's
[TS]
00:14:03
◼
►
character and also his relationship with
[TS]
00:14:05
◼
►
the dad where they have these

conversations of how they will kill how
[TS]
00:14:09
◼

I get away with it this way it makes
[TS]
00:14:12
◼
►
perfect sense though because he murders
[TS]
00:14:14
◼
►
the dad who then goes on to become

00:14:15
◼
►
Clarence the angel so it all worked out

with the nineteen-forties it was the
[TS]
00:14:21
◼
►
love that could not speak its name
[TS]
00:14:22
◼
►
they're great though I think they're my
[TS]
00:14:23
◼
►
favorite part of the whole help although
[TS]
00:14:24
◼
►
how freaky was it to see I actually had
[TS]
00:14:27
◼
►
to like look up his age he was 32 years
[TS]
00:14:29
◼
►

00:14:32
◼
►
I didn't know they even made through
[TS]
00:14:33
◼
►
that I had never seen a non raise any
[TS]

[TS]
00:14:52
◼
►
strong just get Andy magnet right there

◼
►
down the down the line because you know

example of much yes you can discuss
[TS]
00:15:45
◼
►
poisoned by agents see these mushrooms

[TS]
00:15:55
◼

and looks at young Charlie and realize
[TS]
00:16:02
◼
►
oh god she knows i have to totally kill
[TS]
00:16:04
◼
►
her yeah and so the remainder of the
[TS]
00:16:07
◼
►
movie which at this point we've got like
[TS]
00:16:08
◼
►
20 minutes half an hour left is just
[TS]
00:16:11
◼
►
basically him trying to kill his niece
[TS]
00:16:13
◼
►
over and over again and being really bad
[TS]
00:16:15
◼
►
at it a couple things one is i love the
[TS]
00:16:17
◼
►
scene where he's on the stairs their
[TS]
00:16:18
◼
►
first there are a lot of staircases in
[TS]
00:16:20
◼
►
this BS this movie is is this in case in
[TS]
00:16:22
◼
►
the house in the back staircase that
[TS]
00:16:24
◼
►
same i think it's all yes I and then
[TS]
00:16:26
◼
►
he's full staircase staircase staircase
[TS]
00:16:30
◼
►
yes i love the scene where Joseph Cotten
[TS]
00:16:32
◼
►
gets to the top of the stairs and he
[TS]
00:16:33
◼
►
just stops and you're still looking at
[TS]
00:16:34
◼
►
his back you know you and and and he's
[TS]
00:16:37
◼
►
just standing there and that's that
[TS]
00:16:38
◼
►
realization that she's down there in the
[TS]
00:16:40
◼
►
doorway looking at him and that this is
[TS]
00:16:42
◼
►
going to be a problem and that's just a
[TS]
00:16:44
◼
►
fantastic fantastic seen the other thing
[TS]
00:16:47
◼
►
i want to mention is that the you will
[TS]
00:16:49
◼
►
talk about movies we often talk about
[TS]
00:16:50
◼
►
pacing and I I don't want to say this in
[TS]
00:16:53
◼
►
a negative way I what I would let me
[TS]
00:16:56
◼
►
phrase it this way if there were a
[TS]
00:16:57
◼
►
modern retelling of this film we would
[TS]
00:17:01
◼
►
get to the he's going to try to kill her
[TS]
00:17:02
◼
►
repeatedly like 10 minutes in and then
[TS]
00:17:05
◼
►
it would go on for two hours and that's
[TS]
00:17:07
◼
►
not what happens in this movie there's
[TS]
00:17:08
◼
►
like an hour of setup before we even get
[TS]
00:17:12
◼
►
close to realizing where this movie is
[TS]
00:17:15
◼
►
going to end up whereas a modern movie
[TS]
00:17:17
◼
►
with just the whole movie would just be
[TS]
00:17:19
◼
►
like final destination except it's
[TS]
00:17:22
◼
►
Charlie trying to kill Charlie Charlie
[TS]
00:17:25
◼
►
versus Charlie ok
[TS]
00:17:27
◼
►
that could be what we call anyway so I
[TS]
00:17:28
◼
►
appreciated that it was sort of it
[TS]
00:17:29
◼
►
escalates to this moment and then we get
[TS]
00:17:31
◼
►
this sort of frenzied last half hour
[TS]
00:17:34
◼
►
there's the back-and-forth of him trying
[TS]
00:17:36
◼
►
to kill her and I think in a way that's
[TS]
00:17:39
◼
►
why this is Hitchcock's favorite movie
[TS]
00:17:40
◼
►
because it it is it is the slow build to
[TS]
00:17:43
◼
►
perfection
[TS]
00:17:44
◼
►
where where it builds and builds and
[TS]
00:17:47
◼
►
builds and the tension increases
[TS]
00:17:49
◼
►
throughout the movie until until the
[TS]
00:17:52
◼
►
last act which is basically yeah things
[TS]
00:17:55
◼
►
are happening and so there you go
[TS]
00:17:57
◼
►
I mean there's that whole wonderful
[TS]
00:17:59
◼
►
conversation about basically what is an
[TS]
00:18:01
◼
►
earworm that goes for about five minutes
[TS]
00:18:03
◼
►
early on because she can't get the song
[TS]
00:18:05
◼
►
out of your head and then I think songs
[TS]
00:18:07
◼
►
like that transfer from head-to-head and
[TS]
00:18:09
◼
►
if I hum it long enough you'll think
[TS]
00:18:11
◼
►
what it is and then he has to distract
[TS]
00:18:13
◼
►
them before anyone realizes it's the
[TS]
00:18:14
◼
►
merry widow you so who's who started off

[TS]
00:33:15
◼

one who knows how terribly was and and
[TS]
00:33:18
◼
►
that's the end of the no no and that and
[TS]
00:33:20
◼
►
then I can't believe we didn't mention
[TS]
00:33:23
◼
►
at one point before the attempt on her
[TS]
00:33:25
◼
►
life to love directional square just
[TS]
00:33:29
◼
►

you'll see me back but i'm not going to
[TS]
00:33:37
◼
►
be here on business being an FBI agent
[TS]
00:33:39
◼
►
is boring
[TS]
00:33:40
◼
►
I just assume that's par for the course
[TS]
00:33:41
◼
►
because this is in 1943 movie where
[TS]
00:33:44
◼
►
heaven forfend there's a weave is going
[TS]
00:33:47
◼
►
to marry you know exactly just comes out
[TS]
00:33:49
◼
►
of nowhere although i do like the fact
[TS]
00:33:51
◼
►
that he professed his love for her and
[TS]
00:33:52
◼
►
she and she's like well you know never
[TS]
00:33:54
◼
►
nice but I don't know and then but but
[TS]
00:33:58
◼
►
then this is what happens when she is
[TS]
00:34:00
◼
►
there alone and can call the cops he's
[TS]
00:34:04
◼
►
nowhere to be found
[TS]
00:34:05
◼
►
because he's I don't know he's not in
[TS]
00:34:07
◼
►
fresno at that hotel but he said he was
[TS]
00:34:09
◼
►
going to be at he's got a girl in every
[TS]
00:34:11
◼
►
town where he investigates murder yeah
[TS]
00:34:13
◼
►
but it again it's creepy because she's
[TS]
00:34:16
◼
►
theoretically and he again seems like
[TS]
00:34:18
◼
►
he's in his mid to late thirties so well
[TS]
00:34:20
◼
►
that's the standard it was before do it
[TS]
00:34:22
◼
►
existed you know near death at that
[TS]
00:34:25
◼
►
point from some reasonable that the
[TS]
00:34:29
◼
►
black death I think I'm bad humors
[TS]
00:34:32
◼
►
ticket oh we're touching on the thing
[TS]
00:34:33
◼
►
that I that I love the most about this
[TS]
00:34:35
◼
►
movie though as opposed to later
[TS]
00:34:37
◼
►
Hitchcock is that Charlie Teresa Wright
[TS]
00:34:40
◼
►
is really in charge of her own destiny
[TS]
00:34:43
◼
►
and in charge of her own salvation
[TS]
00:34:44
◼
►
whereas later Hitchcock movies that the
[TS]
00:34:47
◼
►
treatment of women is kind of a tough
[TS]
00:34:50
◼
►
ball because but your psychos in your
[TS]
00:34:53
◼
►
birds are basically Grace Kelly didn't
[TS]
00:34:55
◼
►
love me show you must suffer to be angry
[TS]
00:34:58
◼
►
whereas in this one square jaw can't
[TS]
00:35:02
◼
►
save her she has to save herself and she
[TS]
00:35:04
◼
►
she is the agent of her own
[TS]
00:35:07
◼
►
rescue she she she figures out how to
[TS]
00:35:10
◼
►
trap uncle Charlie and and and i really
[TS]
00:35:13
◼
►
like that I think it's unusual among
[TS]
00:35:15
◼
►
Hitchcock pictures particularly among
[TS]
00:35:17
◼
►
the better-known Hitchcock pictures it
[TS]
00:35:20
◼
►
Hitchcock brunettes fare better than
[TS]
00:35:21
◼
►
Hitchcock blondes well absolutely
[TS]
00:35:24
◼
►
yeah we reach the end of the of the
[TS]
00:35:26
◼
►
synopsis what am I i obviously
[TS]
00:35:28
◼
►
interrupted feel about 90 times I to get
[TS]
00:35:31
◼
►
their of so what I want to ask before we
[TS]
00:35:35
◼
►
you know move on to our next movie we
[TS]
00:35:36
◼
►
should talk what we think about this
[TS]
00:35:39
◼
►
movie as a whole we can we can point out
[TS]
00:35:40
◼
►
some of the amusing things about it but
[TS]
00:35:42
◼
►
what did what did you all think of the
[TS]
00:35:45
◼
►
movie all all told Steve what about you
[TS]
00:35:48
◼
►
I'm kind of two minds about it I you
[TS]
00:35:50
◼
►
know the direction was great i really
[TS]
00:35:52
◼
►
like the use of shadow in a lot of
[TS]
00:35:54
◼
►
places since this movie has shadow in
[TS]
00:35:56
◼
►
the title you have shadows in the film
[TS]
00:35:58
◼
►
naturally I thought it was nicely tense
[TS]
00:36:01
◼
►
and you know it ratcheted up pretty much
[TS]
00:36:05
◼
►
throughout which I enjoyed I felt like
[TS]
00:36:07
◼
►
the plot though could have been a lot
[TS]
00:36:08
◼
►
better and I'm i'm going to blame it on
[TS]
00:36:10
◼
►
Thornton Wilder because it was forced to
[TS]
00:36:12
◼
►
read our town twice and twice about it I
[TS]
00:36:14
◼
►
i feel like the film would have been a
[TS]
00:36:17
◼
►
lot more effective if there had been
[TS]
00:36:19
◼
►
some question as to Uncle Charlie's
[TS]
00:36:21
◼
►
guilt and we weren't intimately aware
[TS]
00:36:23
◼
►
early on that he was you know a murder
[TS]
00:36:26
◼
►
he could still be creepy but he doesn't
[TS]
00:36:27
◼
►
necessarily have to be so obviously it
[TS]
00:36:29
◼
►
would be guilty of crimes but not
[TS]
00:36:31
◼
►
horrible murders and material and your
[TS]
00:36:34
◼
►
you kind of hope that he is and then
[TS]
00:36:35
◼
►
later on it would be interesting if
[TS]
00:36:38
◼
►
there was some question as to whether he
[TS]
00:36:39
◼
►
was really responsible for the accidents
[TS]
00:36:41
◼
►
that keep me falling young Charlie but
[TS]
00:36:43
◼
►
again it's made abundantly clear that
[TS]
00:36:46
◼
►
he's the one who you know locks her into
[TS]
00:36:48
◼
►
the garage so I felt like it that could
[TS]
00:36:50
◼
►
have made things a lot more interesting
[TS]
00:36:51
◼

overall it was the the direction and the
[TS]
00:38:59

tension were enough to carry it for me

these not actual investigators there are

like Steve said the shadows are great
[TS]
00:40:36
◼
►
there's one scene on the top of the
[TS]
00:40:39
◼

staircase where for no real reason
[TS]
00:40:42
◼
►
they're just this amazing cabinet of dr.
[TS]
00:40:45
◼

Caligari lighting going on the back wall

whether that was really effective
[TS]
00:41:05
◼
►
I'm not sure whether this was a joke on
[TS]
00:41:07
◼
►
purpose but remember that newspaper

Hitchcock lets you see characters think
[TS]
00:43:03
◼

so you know you see just gotten thinking
[TS]
00:43:06
◼

on the staircase for a minute you see
[TS]
00:43:08
◼
►
the you know in the beginning when he
[TS]
00:43:10
◼

just walks right past the the guys
[TS]
00:43:12
◼

waiting on the street corner for him and

follow and you know so heat so he lets

00:43:22
◼

you see the characters think for a
[TS]
00:43:24
◼
►
they may not all be capable of thinking
[TS]
00:43:26
◼
►
but still you know and one things that I
[TS]
00:43:31
◼
►
i noticed this time through who the
[TS]
00:43:35
◼
►
parallels between the Charlie's in the
[TS]
00:43:37
◼
►
beginning the first time we see both of
[TS]
00:43:39
◼
►
them they're lying in bed and they're
[TS]
00:43:42
◼
►
just when someone else is talking to
[TS]
00:43:43
◼
►
them and drawing things out of them and
[TS]
00:43:46
◼
►
as the movie goes on you know you know
[TS]
00:43:49
◼
►
she makes the point of
[TS]
00:43:50
◼
►
oh I I was that's why I was named for
[TS]
00:43:53
◼
►
right and we have something in common

and I can sense things that you keep
[TS]
00:43:57
◼
►
secret and I know things about you know
[TS]
00:43:59
◼
►
we have this connection and and we know
[TS]
00:44:02
◼
►
through the movie they diverge but in
[TS]
00:44:05
◼
►
the beginning it's very clear that there
[TS]
00:44:07
◼
►
they have this bond so that i think is
[TS]
00:44:09
◼
►
also part of why she doesn't she takes
[TS]
00:44:12
◼
►
so long to come to recesses and more and
[TS]
00:44:15
◼
►
more about you
[TS]
00:44:16
◼
►
i like it like a lot of these folks I i

[TS]
00:44:26
◼
►
especially just got a new appears
[TS]
00:44:28
◼
►
between the like charming debonair
[TS]
00:44:31
◼
►
dashing fellow and really scarily
[TS]
00:44:33
◼
►
psychotic guy because there's some good
[TS]
00:44:36
◼
►
scenes you know especially like when she
[TS]
00:44:38
◼
►
digs out the piece of newspaper from his
[TS]
00:44:41
◼
►
jacket and we get the you know trademark
[TS]
00:44:43
◼
►
Hitchcock POV seymour really you know
[TS]
00:44:45
◼
►
where the camera and we're looking at
[TS]
00:44:46
◼
►
him and you see this entire face sort of
[TS]
00:44:47
◼
►
collapse and you get angry and starts
[TS]
00:44:49
◼
►
yelling you know and ask the audience
[TS]
00:44:51
◼
►
essentially at that point is where the
[TS]
00:44:52
◼
►
stand-in he does such a good job of
[TS]
00:44:54
◼
►
going back and forth just
[TS]
00:44:55
◼
►
instantaneously between being terrifying
[TS]
00:44:58
◼
►
and supercharged like maybe a little
[TS]
00:45:00
◼
►
sleet charming but like you know
[TS]
00:45:02
◼
►
friendly and jovial and so II and even
[TS]
00:45:07
◼
►
the other characters i think if you even
[TS]
00:45:08
◼
►
if they don't seem to quite fit and they
[TS]
00:45:10
◼
►
are a little ridiculous at times I still
[TS]
00:45:12
◼
►
enjoy most of them i really like a
[TS]
00:45:15
◼
►
hundred traverse as the father just
[TS]
00:45:18
◼
►
because he's got a very matter-of-fact
[TS]
00:45:19
◼
►
way of talking about think I just enjoy
[TS]
00:45:21
◼

[TS]
00:45:23
◼
►
discussions of the murder it's just
[TS]
00:45:26
◼
►
they're just so delightfully charming

00:45:36

the the family surveys come around

00:45:38
◼

because they want the typical American
[TS]
00:45:39

family and yet always talking about
[TS]
00:45:41
◼

out some subjects
[TS]
00:51:38
◼
►
oh no it is not i gotta be honest I did
[TS]
00:51:42
◼
►
not I did not get that initially in fact
[TS]
00:51:45
◼
►
the only reason the only because they're
[TS]
00:51:46
◼
►
fresh out of college they could very
[TS]
00:51:48
◼
►
easily be respect and just bury and is

00:51:51
◼

talking about how he previously dated

[TS]
00:52:00
◼

they've planned to some amazing apart

00:52:02
◼
►
and when we first see them they are
[TS]
00:52:03
◼
►
strangling somebody to death
[TS]
00:52:05
◼
►
this is the thing if you're complaining
[TS]
00:52:07
◼
►
about shadow of a doubt is boy they
[TS]
00:52:09
◼
►
really didn't leave much in the way of
[TS]
00:52:10
◼
►
doubt as to what their uncle Charlie's
[TS]
00:52:12
◼
►
but they don't have this will know this
[TS]
00:52:15
◼
►
because this is colombo that's the whole
[TS]
00:52:17
◼
►
point of this movie that opening shot
[TS]
00:52:18
◼
►
right as soon as the soon as the credits
[TS]
00:52:21
◼
►
and they are strengthening their 330
[TS]
00:52:23
◼
►
incidentally david i-i love how idyllic
[TS]
00:52:26
◼
►
the music is during the opening credits
[TS]
00:52:28
◼
►
like the opening credits music yes it
[TS]
00:52:30
◼
►
sounds like this is going to be a lovely
[TS]
00:52:31
◼
►
piano Rob through mr. shadow of a doubt
[TS]
00:52:35
◼
►
to but it's getting late
[TS]
00:52:36
◼
►
he's here because that gigantic dramatic
[TS]
00:52:39
◼
►
title card that says rope in the crazy
[TS]
00:52:41
◼
►
fog comes up and then this string swell
[TS]
00:52:43
◼
►
and it's sort of a lovely lilt no it
[TS]
00:52:46
◼
►
doesn't go dark until we pan into you
[TS]
00:52:48
◼
►
know the apartment essentially it's like
[TS]
00:52:50
◼
►
although the curtains are drawn that's a
[TS]
00:52:51
◼
►
little we all god somebody's being
[TS]
00:52:53
◼
►
strangled right now has somehow
[TS]
00:52:55
◼
►
streaming as he's being strangled which
[TS]
00:52:57
◼
►
is a bit odd I thought yeah
[TS]
00:52:59
◼
►
yes so so the the conceited this movie
[TS]
00:53:02
◼
►
is that the entire film other than the
[TS]
00:53:05
◼
►
opening shot where there's a there's a
[TS]
00:53:06
◼
►
cut if robert zemeckis had been directed
[TS]
00:53:09
◼
►
miss it would have gone through that
[TS]
00:53:10
◼
►
window and through those curtains and
[TS]
00:53:12
◼
►
all the way in but Hitchcock just cuts
[TS]
00:53:14
◼
►
from me from the outside to the inside
[TS]
00:53:16
◼
►
but we spend the entire time in this
[TS]
00:53:19
◼
►
apartment the entire film is there it is
[TS]
00:53:21
◼
►
the bottle episode but but not just the
[TS]
00:53:24
◼
►
location but the fact that these are
[TS]
00:53:26
◼
►
continuous takes each goes for about 10
[TS]
00:53:28
◼
►
minutes and then we we linger for a
[TS]
00:53:30
◼
►
moment to ponder the back of somebody's
[TS]
00:53:32
◼
►
can assume into somebody's jacket yeah
[TS]
00:53:34
◼
►
there are several cuts though which is
[TS]
00:53:36
◼
►
we always strange me because I think
[TS]
00:53:38
◼
►
they go unnoticed refuse because it you
[TS]
00:53:40
◼
►
kind of went out but there are several
[TS]
00:53:41
◼
►
just like jump cuts yet are slow
[TS]
00:53:44
◼
►
charging but but purposeful in the
[TS]
00:53:46
◼
►
replacement like i said i think those
[TS]
00:53:48
◼
►
actually probably are better than the
[TS]
00:53:49
◼
►
zoom into the jacket shot yeah I don't
[TS]
00:53:51
◼
►
like a turd in a punch but the gimmick
[TS]
00:53:53
◼
►
cuts are super distracting to me because
[TS]
00:53:55
◼
►
I spent the whole movie watching for
[TS]
00:53:57
◼
►
them the jump cuts are because they had
[TS]
00:53:59
◼
►
to physically change the real story is
[TS]
00:54:01
◼
►
in the projectors so he he said I don't
[TS]
00:54:03
◼
►
need to cover those they have to change
[TS]
00:54:05
◼
►
them anyway so Brandt Brandon Phillips I
[TS]
00:54:08
◼
►
have committed what they what they hope
[TS]
00:54:10
◼
►
is the perfect murder for certain values
[TS]
00:54:13
◼
►
of murderers as as John doll who plays
[TS]
00:54:15
◼
►
Brandon says over and over and we pause
[TS]
00:54:19
◼
►
here and examine how this could possibly
[TS]
00:54:21
◼
►
be the perfect murder when they have
[TS]
00:54:23
◼
►
absolutely no plan other than kill the
[TS]
00:54:26
◼
►
well you take advantage of the country
[TS]
00:54:27
◼
►
and cook in Connecticut and then you
[TS]
00:54:29
◼
►
just dump his body in the lake and never
[TS]
00:54:31
◼
►
know I i think their arguments they have
[TS]
00:54:33
◼
►
no motive that they have they have no
[TS]
00:54:35
◼
►
motive also also they've got they've
[TS]
00:54:37
◼
►
phoned from the done a fake phone call
[TS]
00:54:39
◼
►
from the city to say that
[TS]
00:54:41
◼
►
hi I'm David I'm definitely alive and
[TS]
00:54:43
◼
►
i'll definitely see you three hours
[TS]
00:54:45
◼
►
later went to disguise where they are i
[TS]
00:54:47
◼
►
think there's a lot of this plot we
[TS]
00:54:48
◼
►
haven't we
[TS]
00:54:49
◼
►
get the sea but I think the best thing
[TS]
00:54:51
◼
►
would be completely completely
[TS]
00:54:52
◼
►
appropriate this guy's arrogance is just
[TS]
00:54:54
◼
►
that it's perfect is that I've seen I've
[TS]
00:54:56
◼
►
looked small angles and only Son my
[TS]
00:54:58
◼
►
genius could ya that's what happened
[TS]
00:55:00
◼
►
with Leopold and Loeb is there yeah they
[TS]
00:55:02
◼
►
had the perfect murder and it fell apart
[TS]
00:55:04
◼
►
immediately even for that if if even if
[TS]
00:55:08
◼
►
it had the initial part had worked out
[TS]
00:55:10
◼
►
it's so unbelievably poor of a plan
[TS]
00:55:12
◼
►
there's no way they could possibly have
[TS]
00:55:14

00:57:40
◼

there housemaster right so now that

00:57:46
◼

that poor Farley Granger is always

[TS]
00:58:00
◼

love just how this is constructed where
[TS]
00:58:01
◼

you feel as though it's not unjust
[TS]
00:58:04
◼

enough for this guy to plot a murder

this person into being my accomplice in
[TS]
00:58:17
◼

this murder even though he has apps he
[TS]
00:58:19

does not share my belief system that
[TS]
00:58:21
◼
►
people should die for my amusement
[TS]
00:58:23
◼
►
I mean there's there's a little bit of a
[TS]
00:58:24
◼
►
corollary between him and uncle Charlie
[TS]
00:58:27
◼
►
I think from shadow of a doubt like both

of whom kind of seem to believe that
[TS]
00:58:29
◼

they are above above morals no I don't
[TS]
00:58:33
◼
►
know I i feel as though you're Charlie's
[TS]
00:58:35
◼
►
just seriously bent whereas this person
[TS]
00:58:38
◼
►
is just such as as a psychopathic
[TS]
00:58:40
◼
►
behavior and so yeah he's really
[TS]
00:58:41
◼
►
grounded
[TS]
00:58:42
◼
►
well he's on his way he's younger me as
[TS]
00:58:45
◼
►
if there's a there's a difference

dollars and I need that a dar think
[TS]
00:58:57
◼
►

value human life it's another thing to
[TS]
00:59:01
◼
►
simply say im bored I think I'll kill
[TS]
00:59:03
◼

that person because the internet was
[TS]
00:59:04
◼
►
attended the whole experiment the whole
[TS]
00:59:06
◼

like rationale given by jimmy stewart is
[TS]
00:59:08
◼

way of what you want you want to get
[TS]
00:59:11
◼
►
into the restaurant you
[TS]
00:59:13
◼
►
get theater tickets like I think that
[TS]
00:59:14
◼
►
the there is a overriding philosophy
[TS]
00:59:17
◼
►
thereof you know it feels like
[TS]
00:59:18
◼
►
everybody's stupid should be he should
[TS]
00:59:20
◼
►
be able to kill anybody stupid that he
[TS]
00:59:21
◼
►
wants to like he may not be at uncle
[TS]
00:59:23
◼
►
Charlie levels yet of thinking the whole
[TS]
00:59:25
◼
►
world's a joke but like if he kept going
[TS]
00:59:27
◼
►
for a while he would definitely end up
[TS]
00:59:29
◼
►
well I mean that's part of why he's
[TS]
00:59:31
◼
►
invited the the former boyfriend of the
[TS]
00:59:34
◼
►
girl friend is like well if we get David
[TS]
00:59:35
◼
►
out of the way they're actually a better
[TS]
00:59:37
◼
►
couple you know we'll we'll shove them
[TS]
00:59:39
◼
►
back together and it's it's all social
[TS]
00:59:42
◼
►
engineering
[TS]
00:59:43
◼
►
although I mean not there anything that
[TS]
00:59:44
◼
►
he cares about right like he doesn't
[TS]
00:59:46
◼
►
actually care about the happiness of
[TS]
00:59:47
◼
►
either of those people right you just
[TS]
00:59:49
◼
►
want to be manipulative exactly i think
[TS]
00:59:51
◼
►
that might have been part of his plan
[TS]
00:59:52
◼
►
though to cover for what why isn't David
[TS]
00:59:54
◼
►
hero well he must have known that I was
[TS]
00:59:56
◼
►
gonna be here so we just decided not to
[TS]
00:59:58
◼
►
come that too or that you did
[TS]
00:59:58
◼
►
come that too or that you did
[TS]
01:00:00
◼
►
invite him because you just want to
[TS]
01:00:01
◼
►
manipulate us into like being feeling
[TS]
01:00:03
◼
►
awkward about the fact that we used to
[TS]
01:00:05
◼
►
be in a relationship
[TS]
01:00:06
◼
►
my favorite thing in this is probably
[TS]
01:00:08
◼
►
the scene where and you know this
[TS]
01:00:11
◼
►
happens at several points where the
[TS]
01:00:12
◼
►
cameras view is not where the action is
[TS]
01:00:15
◼
►
yeah or at least not when attacking not
[TS]
01:00:18
◼
►
where the talking is and it is an animal
[TS]
01:00:20
◼
►
and the bettin it happened several times
[TS]
01:00:21
◼
►
the best one is as we very slowly watch
[TS]
01:00:25
◼
►
the housekeeper's still cleaning up the
[TS]
01:00:29
◼
►
stronger because she's going to take all
[TS]
01:00:30
◼
►
the stuff off of the trunk and then open
[TS]
01:00:32
◼
►
the trunk and put all the books in the
[TS]
01:00:34
◼
►
trunk with thereby revealing the dead
[TS]
01:00:36
◼
►
body one of the best suspense moments i
[TS]
01:00:38
◼
►
think in any Hitchcock it's just amazing
[TS]
01:00:40
◼
►
and there's no music and it's just a
[TS]
01:00:42
◼
►
conversation and she walks all the way
[TS]
01:00:44
◼
►
down the hall she's so smitten kitchen
[TS]
01:00:47
◼
►
walks all the way better walks all the
[TS]
01:00:48
◼
►
way down the hall again you know it's
[TS]
01:00:50
◼
►
just it's enjoyed every time she gets a
[TS]
01:00:52
◼
►
little closer your breath catches in
[TS]
01:00:53
◼
►
this conversation happening and you have
[TS]
01:00:55
◼
►
at several points in this film this
[TS]
01:00:57
◼
►
overlapped conversation sorry Robert
[TS]
01:00:58
◼
►
Altman asked in bits and it's like the
[TS]
01:01:01
◼
►
point is not it's a dinner party let
[TS]
01:01:02
◼
►
people are having different
[TS]
01:01:04
◼
►
conversations at different places and
[TS]
01:01:06
◼
►
that's all the hubbub is happening while
[TS]
01:01:07
◼
►
we very slowly watch and that is just
[TS]
01:01:09
◼
►
the realization it starts and it just
[TS]
01:01:12
◼
►
keeps getting worse and worse that she
[TS]
01:01:13
◼
►
is going to open that trunk and it's
[TS]
01:01:16
◼
►
amazing and for people who aren't
[TS]
01:01:18
◼
►
familiar with the scene it's not as

01:01:19
◼
►
though all they're just gonna have to
[TS]
01:01:20
◼
►
like lift up the truck it's no it's

◼
►
walk away it yet all the while you are
[TS]
01:01:43
◼
►
rushing to the conclusion so that you
[TS]
01:01:45
◼
►
get there way before she is physically
[TS]
01:01:47
◼
►
able to get to that point and that
[TS]
01:01:49
◼
►
creates some amazing suspense it is a
[TS]
01:01:51
◼
►
fantastic see and the shot ends with the
[TS]
01:01:54
◼
►
shadow of somebody suddenly walking in
[TS]
01:01:56
◼
►
which is really impressive when you
[TS]
01:01:58
◼
►
realize they needed to do special
[TS]
01:01:59
◼
►
lighting just actually cast a shadow on
[TS]
01:02:01
◼
►
the ground shot that got me even before
[TS]
01:02:03
◼
►
that though was actually tweeted up
[TS]
01:02:06
◼
►
because i was just i just love this shot
[TS]
01:02:07
◼
►
so much watching us rewatching in the

01:02:09
◼
►
afternoon and those watchin on the iPad

01:02:14
◼
►
since the dinner party's in full swing
[TS]
01:02:16
◼
►
nobody has any suspicion anything's
[TS]
01:02:18
◼
►
going on and then there's a conversation
[TS]
01:02:20
◼
►
that there's a casual shot of jimmy
[TS]
01:02:22
◼
►
stewart and then he just holds on that
[TS]
01:02:25
◼
►
shot for I had time it out more than 20
[TS]
01:02:28
◼
►
seconds just count yourself right now
[TS]
01:02:30
◼
►
not right now but like think about how
[TS]
01:02:33
◼
►
long 20 seconds really is and imagine
[TS]
01:02:35
◼
►
that it's just that the cameras not
[TS]
01:02:37
◼
►
pulling in it's just a static shot of
[TS]
01:02:38
◼
►
him listening to these two murderers
[TS]
01:02:40
◼
►
talk idly and you sense that there's
[TS]
01:02:43
◼
►
this little thing happening in the back
[TS]
01:02:45
◼
►
of Jimmy stores eyes that's I don't know
[TS]
01:02:47
◼
►
what's wrong but something's very wrong
[TS]
01:02:49
◼
►
here and that's the first things i see a
[TS]
01:02:52
◼
►
thread dangling at the end of this cable
[TS]
01:02:53
◼
►
knit sweater and keep pulling start
[TS]
01:02:55
◼
►
pulling on that thread until this whole
[TS]
01:02:57
◼
►
thing comes apart if I can tip my hand
[TS]
01:03:00
◼
►
the reason i picked this movie is
[TS]
01:03:02
◼
►
because i think it's indicative of
[TS]
01:03:05
◼
►
Hitchcock's approach to a suspense movie
[TS]
01:03:07
◼
►
and I'm going to paraphrase a quote that
[TS]
01:03:11
◼
►
he once said where it basically a good
[TS]
01:03:14
◼
►
suspense movie is the audience knows
[TS]
01:03:16
◼
►
that there's a bomb and that it's gonna
[TS]
01:03:19
◼
►
go off at one o'clock and no one no one
[TS]
01:03:22
◼
►
on the screen knows that it's gonna go
[TS]
01:03:24
◼
►
off at one o'clock and they're talking
[TS]
01:03:25
◼
►
about all these trivial matters and all
[TS]
01:03:28
◼
►
this the stupidity and the audience is
[TS]
01:03:30
◼
►
sitting there going to come are doled
[TS]
01:03:32
◼
►
oh and that and that is basically what
[TS]
01:03:36
◼
►
he doesn't rope and i followed the way I
[TS]
01:03:39
◼
►
heard it and I was gonna say this too is
[TS]
01:03:41
◼
►
that you know if if you show two guys
[TS]
01:03:43
◼
►
having a conversation at the table and
[TS]
01:03:45
◼
►
it's the most boring thing in the world
[TS]
01:03:47
◼
►
and after 10 minutes the table blows up
[TS]
01:03:49
◼
►
you've got a quick shock and all it blew

01:04:44
◼
►
tension starts to exist and that is why
[TS]
01:04:47
◼
►
he's so good at yeah i think because a
[TS]
01:04:49
◼
►
psycho and birds Hitchcock wrongly gets
[TS]
01:04:53
◼

painted with the the more movie brush

01:04:57
◼

he does suspense movies and and really
[TS]
01:04:59
◼
►
does spine movies too
[TS]
01:05:01
◼

happen and and how in the hell are they
[TS]
01:05:11
◼
►

01:07:19
◼
►
Stewart returns and does colombo yeah
[TS]
01:07:22

[TS]
01:07:36
◼
►
you realize that he's in real danger and
[TS]
01:07:38
◼
►
then you're on Stuart side is very much
[TS]
01:07:40
◼
►
like a Colombo also in that you do sort
[TS]
01:07:44
◼
►
of want to root for the killer you want
[TS]
01:07:46
◼
►
him to get away with it because you know
[TS]
01:07:47
◼
►
Colombo is so good and you know he's not

01:07:49
◼
►
gonna get away

[TS]
01:07:53
◼
►
rip it right me of colombo for almost
[TS]
01:07:55
◼
►
exactly that reason but the thing is
[TS]
01:07:56
◼
►
something it's not about finding out who
[TS]
01:07:58
◼
►
the killer is or if you're gonna come to
[TS]
01:08:00
◼
►
justice because you kind of know that
[TS]
01:08:02
◼
►
they're going to get caught it really is
[TS]
01:08:04
◼
►
what are we going to learn about this
[TS]
01:08:05
◼
►
killer over the course of this these
[TS]
01:08:09
◼
►
events especially as the pressure mounts
[TS]
01:08:11
◼
►
and mounts and mounts how are they going
[TS]
01:08:13
◼
►
to react to it are they going to
[TS]
01:08:15
◼
►
increase sometimes some of the Colombo's
[TS]
01:08:17
◼
►
they just increasingly are reason they
[TS]
01:08:19
◼
►
know that ok I'm on borrowed time but i
[TS]
01:08:21
◼
►
can do a few things to maybe by myself
[TS]
01:08:24
◼
►
more time but I know this isn't it is
[TS]
01:08:25
◼
►
inevitable their self-delusion sometimes
[TS]
01:08:28
◼
►
and sometimes i'm going to double down
[TS]
01:08:29
◼
►
on this I but watching watching Philip
[TS]
01:08:33
◼
►
watching Farley Granger just unspool is
[TS]
01:08:36
◼
►
the reason why you love this but that
[TS]
01:08:38
◼
►
there's something there's so many
[TS]
01:08:39
◼
►
there's so many shots there's so many
[TS]
01:08:41
◼
►
shots you just love about this and some
[TS]
01:08:43
◼
►
of them were just looks so cheeseball if
[TS]
01:08:45
◼
►
they were not being done by a master how
[TS]
01:08:48
◼
►
about he's getting it will have Farley
[TS]
01:08:50
◼
►
Granger playing piano just sort of like
[TS]
01:08:52
◼
►
to bleed off some of the tension and
[TS]
01:08:54
◼
►
look casual and Jimmy Stewart just sort
[TS]
01:08:56
◼
►
of Saunders off and say oh you're such a
[TS]
01:08:58
◼
►
good piano player can't believe that I
[TS]
01:09:00
◼
►
didn't think that we would have a
[TS]
01:09:01
◼
►
metronome and he starts ticking
[TS]
01:09:03
◼
►
yeah which is super distracting if
[TS]
01:09:06
◼
►
you're trying to play piano intro page
[TS]
01:09:08
◼
►
of dialogue something not just the
[TS]
01:09:10
◼
►
slider to get go faster and faster and
[TS]
01:09:13
◼
►
faster and using that Granger is not
[TS]
01:09:17
◼
►
playing faster but he's making more
[TS]
01:09:19
◼
►
mistakes now I like oh you just want to
[TS]
01:09:21
◼
►
rewind and play that back because oh
[TS]
01:09:24
◼
►
good heavens that is brilliant the great
[TS]
01:09:26
◼
►
bit there is when it seems like Jimmy
[TS]
01:09:28
◼
►
Stewart is getting off track and and
[TS]
01:09:30
◼
►
Phillip starts to laugh and the tempo
[TS]
01:09:32
◼
►
slows down and it starts you know
[TS]
01:09:34
◼
►
becoming less and less dissonant and
[TS]
01:09:36
◼
►
then Rupert kind of gets a little closer
[TS]
01:09:39
◼
►
to the truth again and it speeds up
[TS]
01:09:40
◼
►
again and and the whole thing starts a
[TS]
01:09:42
◼
►
new it's just it's a fantastic scene
[TS]
01:09:44
◼
►
when just the choreography of this i
[TS]
01:09:47
◼
►
mean it it was based on stage play and
[TS]
01:09:49
◼
►
it has the feel of a play
[TS]
01:09:51
◼
►
yes film which a lot of movies that are
[TS]
01:09:53
◼
►
adapted darkness
[TS]
01:09:54
◼
►
it is very staging but the thing I love
[TS]
01:09:57
◼
►
about it is just just the sheer
[TS]
01:09:58
◼
►
choreography that had to go into it not
[TS]
01:10:00
◼
►
just that it was the continuous takes
[TS]
01:10:03
◼
►
but you know the walls and the furniture
[TS]
01:10:05
◼
►
sliding in and out having to put the
[TS]
01:10:07
◼
►
furniture back and have the camera one
[TS]
01:10:09
◼
►
really huge cameras of the time yeah
[TS]
01:10:12
◼
►
related on the scenery that just the
[TS]
01:10:14
◼
►
Cyclorama behind it it's not a painting
[TS]
01:10:17
◼
►
you know you've got lights coming on in
[TS]
01:10:19
◼
►
buildings and still only other families
[TS]
01:10:21
◼
►
and our got spun glass clouds that are
[TS]
01:10:24
◼
►
moving through the whole thing and
[TS]
01:10:27
◼
►
apparently he reshot the second half of
[TS]
01:10:28
◼
►
the movie because he wasn't satisfied
[TS]
01:10:30
◼
►
with the sunset
[TS]
01:10:31
◼
►
yeah it's staging but the camera is
[TS]
01:10:33
◼
►
always moving around and going to angles
[TS]
01:10:36
◼
►
with the set
[TS]
01:10:37
◼
►
you clearly could stage it so everybody
[TS]
01:10:40
◼
►
just playing straight out and you should
[TS]
01:10:41
◼
►
like i love lucy and
[TS]
01:10:43
◼
►
right yeah but it i think you get a full
[TS]
01:10:46
◼
►
view I think you get like three and 60°
[TS]
01:10:48
◼
►
at some point where you see just about
[TS]
01:10:50
◼
►
every angle of the room which you don't
[TS]
01:10:53
◼
►
usually get the movie too
[TS]
01:10:54
◼
►
well then you up the difficulty factor
[TS]
01:10:56
◼
►
by insisting on doing eight-minute takes
[TS]
01:10:58
◼
►
forever yeah something goes wrong in
[TS]
01:11:00
◼
►
minutes 6 it's like oh well get another
[TS]
01:11:02
◼
►
real in there let's get going again if
[TS]
01:11:04
◼
►
I'm TV trivia is to be believed you know
[TS]
01:11:07
◼
►
you have like cat camera people being
[TS]
01:11:09
◼
►
having their feet run over by cameras
[TS]
01:11:11
◼
►
and and like he dragged off to screen
[TS]
01:11:14
◼
►
your way from the back so like a civil
[TS]
01:11:17
◼
►
war Hospital in there there's so much
[TS]
01:11:19
◼
►
you don't consider until you start
[TS]
01:11:20
◼
►
thinking about that because I was also
[TS]
01:11:22
◼
►
really probably the same articles you
[TS]
01:11:23
◼
►
were I think I didn't think about that
[TS]
01:11:25
◼
►
because these are huge cameras and
[TS]
01:11:27
◼
►
they're huge like transatlantic pipeline
[TS]
01:11:29
◼
►
cables connecting everything up and so
[TS]
01:11:31
◼
►
all these actors have to like being
[TS]
01:11:33
◼
►
stolen from the waist up while they're
[TS]
01:11:34
◼
►
like hopscotching over these moving
[TS]
01:11:36
◼
►
cables 31st the seam I feel like the the
[TS]
01:11:40
◼
►
opening sequence we're looking through
[TS]
01:11:42
◼
►
the curtains is probably a nod to the
[TS]
01:11:44
◼
►
fact that this is basically a stage play
[TS]
01:11:46
◼
►
being yes the current era it doesn't
[TS]
01:11:49
◼
►
actually open but we get the impression
[TS]
01:11:50
◼
►
i think maybe my favorite visual gag in
[TS]
01:11:54
◼
►
the whole movie is you know when they
[TS]
01:11:57
◼
►
open with the side curtains and there's
[TS]
01:11:59
◼
►
that neon sign that is literally right
[TS]
01:12:01
◼
►
on top of there ready to rain yeah and
[TS]
01:12:03
◼
►
and it's just there and and so it's kind
[TS]
01:12:06
◼
►
of this joke of you know here is this
[TS]
01:12:07
◼
►
neon blinking the whole time right this
[TS]
01:12:10
◼
►
neon in the middle now we know why he's
[TS]
01:12:13
◼
►
well and but then at the end you know
[TS]
01:12:15
◼
►
now it's discovered they found the body
[TS]
01:12:17
◼
►
and and injury Stewart is fired off his
[TS]
01:12:20
◼
►
gun and your people calling the police
[TS]
01:12:21
◼
►
and they all just kind of settle down
[TS]
01:12:23
◼
►
and now because of the darkness and the
[TS]
01:12:25
◼
►
shifting of light it winds up becoming
[TS]
01:12:28
◼
►
police lights right yeah right so for
[TS]
01:12:30
◼
►
chance there's a foreshadow there
[TS]
01:12:32
◼
►
yeah and it's just so nice my perception
[TS]
01:12:34
◼
►
was that the Leon lights were in blue
[TS]
01:12:36
◼
►
until we get to Jimmy Stewart comes back
[TS]
01:12:39
◼
►
to find a cigarette case and that's when
[TS]
01:12:42
◼
►
the lights are now read
[TS]
01:12:43
◼
►
yeah well they're green to red flashing
[TS]

[TS]
01:14:13
◼
►
criminals not-so-bright premieres every
[TS]
01:14:16
◼
►
phase of this crime is so asinine that
[TS]
01:14:18
◼

how anybody even at sociopath could
[TS]
01:14:20
◼
►
think it was a perfect crime defy his
[TS]
01:14:22
◼
►
logic eat it I think that's part of its
[TS]
01:14:25
◼
►
its its elegance in some ways is that it
[TS]
01:14:28
◼
►
is totally it's it's / the moment right
[TS]
01:14:31
◼
►
in like it you know even if they
[TS]
01:14:32
◼
►
premeditate with certain extent it's so
[TS]
01:14:34
◼
►
ridiculous the idea of like it's so
[TS]
01:14:35
◼
►
ridiculous it just might work
[TS]
01:14:37
◼
►
so the thinking is that everybody would
[TS]
01:14:39
◼
►
think now that's far too stupid for
[TS]
01:14:40
◼
►
those two intelligent boys to have try
[TS]
01:14:43
◼
►
well I think it's just no one would ever
[TS]
01:14:44
◼
►
think that they would do right like it
[TS]
01:14:46
◼
►
it's so ridiculous so over-the-top how
[TS]
01:14:48
◼
►
well rather they not even Jimmy Stewart
[TS]
01:14:50
◼
►
believes that they would do a former
[TS]
01:14:52
◼
►
classmate of mine who is now in
[TS]
01:14:55
◼
►
the US Justice Department once said to
[TS]
01:14:57
◼
►
me thank God criminals are so stupid she
[TS]
01:15:00
◼
►
is about the about the staging of it i
[TS]
01:15:03
◼
►
wanted to say that i love that it feels
[TS]
01:15:07
◼
►
it's got its got the dynamic feeling of
[TS]
01:15:10
◼
►
the of a stage play with one difference
[TS]
01:15:12
◼
►
being where the camera goes and that is
[TS]
01:15:14
◼
►
the that is the power that the director
[TS]
01:15:16
◼
►
has over you to point you where you
[TS]
01:15:18
◼
►
should be looking at all times which in
[TS]
01:15:21
◼
►
my mind actually magnifies the effect of
[TS]
01:15:23
◼
►
this I I thought that made it a
[TS]
01:15:26
◼
►
supremely effective because it its it's
[TS]
01:15:28
◼
►
going to a stage play and always looking
[TS]
01:15:30
◼
►
exactly where you need to look and I
[TS]
01:15:33
◼
►
yeah I I i really enjoyed this i thought
[TS]
01:15:36
◼
►
this was actually spectacularly good
[TS]
01:15:39
◼
►
I i like the whole thing quite a lot so
[TS]
01:15:43
◼
►
i get i give it give it a big thumbs up
[TS]
01:15:45
◼
►
I thought it was just incredibly
[TS]
01:15:47
◼
►
effective and intense and I like the
[TS]
01:15:49
◼
►
fact that we were moving around in this
[TS]
01:15:51
◼
►
in this space it was 88 you know it had
[TS]
01:15:55
◼
►
a cinematic element with the with the
[TS]
01:15:57
◼
►
way the cameras moving around but it
[TS]
01:15:58
◼
►
also felt like it was just riveting
[TS]
01:15:59
◼
►
theater and it's not an experience I've
[TS]
01:16:02
◼
►
had in many films so I really appreciate
[TS]
01:16:06
◼
►
I just can't get over how it sits it
[TS]
01:16:08
◼
►
really is like X Games downhill
[TS]
01:16:11
◼
►
snowboarding where it's just see him I'm
[TS]
01:16:13
◼
►
yes yes I could just jump this but why
[TS]
01:16:15
◼
►
not what I just do a backflip while
[TS]
01:16:17
◼
►
you're doing this like i'm gonna i'm
[TS]
01:16:19
◼
►
gonna show you how to our depth i am and
[TS]
01:16:22
◼
►
how absolutely fearless I am that
[TS]
01:16:25
◼
►
anybody else would absolutely snap their
[TS]
01:16:28
◼
►
neck and four places if they try to do
[TS]
01:16:30
◼
►
some of the things that I'm trying to
[TS]
01:16:32
◼
►
get away with here and yet when he does
[TS]
01:16:34
◼
►
it you just viewed you don't even notice
[TS]
01:16:36
◼
►
that the first time particularly and
[TS]
01:16:38
◼
►
then your nose to the second time and
[TS]
01:16:40
◼
►
you think oh I just noticed that
[TS]
01:16:42
◼
►
Oh wasn't that interesting and what
[TS]
01:16:47
◼
►
yeah I'm right with you here Jason I I
[TS]
01:16:48
◼
►
loved everything about some thought the
[TS]
01:16:50
◼
►
acting was superb
[TS]
01:16:52
◼
►
I i loved this sort of gallows humor
[TS]
01:16:54
◼
►
that popped up
[TS]
01:16:55
◼
►
oh yeah ik frequently there's a line
[TS]
01:16:59
◼
►
where Janet says I hope you knock them
[TS]
01:17:00
◼
►
dead two fellow yeah exactly
[TS]
01:17:02
◼
►
there's another one where she says I
[TS]
01:17:04
◼
►
could really strangle you Brandon
[TS]
01:17:06
◼
►
and you when you're quite a good chicken
[TS]
01:17:09
◼
►
strangling over the chicken is a chicken
[TS]
01:17:11
◼
►
strangling his subjects
[TS]
01:17:13
◼
►
I'm not a chicken strangler and their
[TS]
01:17:14
◼
►
struggle the chicken that's that's the
[TS]
01:17:17
◼
►
equivalent of ripping the newspaper
[TS]
01:17:19
◼
►
right like giving away a little too much
[TS]
01:17:21
◼
►
here we know what is safety word is I
[TS]
01:17:23
◼
►
also like the with the introduction of
[TS]
01:17:25
◼
►
Jimmy Stewart to Nancy when she says did
[TS]
01:17:28
◼
►
he do me justice his responses do you
[TS]
01:17:30
◼
►
deserve justice
[TS]
01:17:31
◼
►
i actually laughed out loud that it was
[TS]
01:17:34
◼
►
hilarious
[TS]
01:17:35
◼
►
there's a lot of really nice details in
[TS]
01:17:36
◼
►
here I like the fact that at the end he
[TS]
01:17:39
◼
►
leaves two bullets in the gun there's
[TS]
01:17:41
◼
►
there's 130 yeah Lenny fires three out
[TS]
01:17:44
◼
►
the window and I thought that was why he
[TS]
01:17:46
◼
►
keeps to in the chamber in case he needs
[TS]
01:17:48
◼
►
one for each of the boys I haven't seen
[TS]
01:17:50
◼
►
this before and that absolutely popped
[TS]
01:17:51
◼
►
up yeah I ran that back to actually
[TS]
01:17:53
◼
►
count on with more shots at fired nice
[TS]
01:17:55
◼
►
everybody left to he's gonna kill both
[TS]
01:17:57
◼
►
yeah if a truck if they give him trouble
[TS]
01:18:00
◼
►
that's what he's gonna do and I really
[TS]
01:18:02
◼
►
like the way that the tables turn when
[TS]
01:18:04
◼
►
Rupert returns because he's so cocksure
[TS]
01:18:07
◼
►
throughout the first the party segment
[TS]
01:18:09
◼
►
and when he comes back and it's he's
[TS]
01:18:11
◼
►
pretty clear on the fact that the guys
[TS]
01:18:13
◼
►
got the gun he now just seems all too
[TS]
01:18:15
◼
►
fallible and he suddenly seems genuinely
[TS]
01:18:17
◼
►
nervous about what he's gotten himself
[TS]
01:18:18
◼
►
into and I think that is just that's
[TS]
01:18:20
◼
►
fantastic
[TS]
01:18:21
◼
►
the desperation with which he's he goes
[TS]
01:18:24
◼
►
to he goes to Jimmy Stewart and tries to
[TS]
01:18:26
◼
►
I've I believe that I can talk him into
[TS]
01:18:28
◼
►
being an accomplice to because oh my god
[TS]
01:18:31
◼
►
we are cut from the same cloth we r we r
[TS]
01:18:33
◼
►
skindred spirits and he will be more
[TS]
01:18:35
◼
►
than happy to help me cover up this
[TS]
01:18:37
◼
►
murder invent a pic department actually
[TS]
01:18:40
◼
►
thought almost up until the very end
[TS]
01:18:41
◼
►
that he might just turn that was the
[TS]
01:18:43
◼
►
question right and didn't think I didn't
[TS]
01:18:45
◼
►
think so but I ok I'd I didn't have the
[TS]
01:18:49
◼
►
same experiences i think in a modern
[TS]
01:18:50
◼
►
film i would have thought that it was
[TS]
01:18:52
◼
►
possible in this with Jimmy Stewart
[TS]
01:18:54
◼
►
being the character is giving Stewart
[TS]
01:18:57
◼
►
he's not a killer clown in this one so
[TS]
01:18:59
◼
►
if there's a turn that I was sort of
[TS]
01:19:01
◼
►
half wondering what's gonna happen is if
[TS]
01:19:04
◼
►
if they if they are kind of the same
[TS]
01:19:06
◼
►
people he would definitely come back not
[TS]
01:19:08
◼
►
necessarily to bring them to justice but
[TS]
01:19:10
◼
►
i know that i could inflict a lot of
[TS]
01:19:12
◼
►
suffering if I just let them quietly try
[TS]
01:19:16
◼
►
to figure out if I know or find just
[TS]
01:19:18
◼
►
simply the
[TS]
01:19:19
◼
►
website just really for my cigarette
[TS]
01:19:20
◼
►
case and oh and the up until the time
[TS]
01:19:23
◼
►
when he just opens the window and sticks
[TS]
01:19:26
◼
►
his hand out there with a gun and fired
[TS]
01:19:28
◼
►
shots into the air which is not the even
[TS]
01:19:31
◼
►
if I thought that ok maybe he's going to
[TS]
01:19:32
◼
►
call people and I would never have
[TS]
01:19:34
◼
►
figured out that he's gonna do the most
[TS]
01:19:36
◼
►
painful way possible yeah which is going
[TS]
01:19:39
◼
►
to be no we're just going to sit out
[TS]
01:19:40
◼
►
here while I've got the gun into bullets
[TS]
01:19:42
◼
►
and you're gonna listen to the commotion
[TS]
01:19:43
◼
►
and are going to listen to police siren
[TS]
01:19:45
◼
►
start to come and they're just gonna be
[TS]
01:19:47
◼
►
so we're gonna try to guess where that
[TS]
01:19:49
◼
►
shot came from
[TS]
01:19:50
◼
►
yeah it's gonna take at least its mark
[TS]
01:19:52
◼
►
too because it because if he tries to
[TS]
01:19:54
◼
►
make for the door there's a chance he
[TS]
01:19:55
◼
►
could still be overpowered by those two
[TS]
01:19:57
◼
►
I mean he's got a bum leg
[TS]
01:19:59
◼
►
there's two of them were younger he's
[TS]
01:20:00
◼
►
ruined the perfection of their crime at
[TS]
01:20:02
◼
►
this point because you know you're not
[TS]
01:20:03
◼
►
you're not getting a truck with a body
[TS]
01:20:04
◼
►
out yet the department under these
[TS]
01:20:06
◼
►
circumstances I so I steve and i have
[TS]
01:20:08
◼
►
professed our approval of this one the
[TS]
01:20:11
◼
►
the rest of you guys wanna want to jump
[TS]
01:20:13
◼
►
in here before we wrap it up I kind of
[TS]
01:20:15
◼
►
find it gimmicky like I spend a lot of
[TS]
01:20:19
◼
►
the time watching the camera thinking oh
[TS]
01:20:22
◼
►
they just had to swap that table in when
[TS]
01:20:25
◼
►
the camera move over there oh here comes
[TS]
01:20:27
◼
►
the hidden cut like camera work is very
[TS]
01:20:30
◼
►
fancy i think it may be too fancy and
[TS]
01:20:34
◼
►
maybe fancy for its own sake for me you
[TS]
01:20:37
◼
►
know i actually got most of the way
[TS]
01:20:38
◼
►
through the movie before I remembered
[TS]
01:20:40
◼
►
that I had read somewhere that it was
[TS]
01:20:41
◼
►
all done in one continuous shot and so
[TS]
01:20:43
◼
►
that didn't distract me I could
[TS]
01:20:45
◼
►
definitely see it doing so and i
[TS]
01:20:46
◼
►
remember that in advance but it wasn't
[TS]
01:20:49
◼
►
so gimmicky to me that it was always
[TS]
01:20:51
◼
►
poking out at me and tell the jacket
[TS]
01:20:53
◼
►
zoom seen and that was kind of reading i
[TS]
01:20:55
◼
►
agree with with Monty that it's it's
[TS]
01:20:57
◼
►
gimmicky but i don't think that attracts
[TS]
01:20:59
◼
►
necessarily from it like if it's the
[TS]
01:21:01
◼
►
kind of thing where I feel like you know
[TS]
01:21:03
◼
►
again like I think and he was saying
[TS]
01:21:05
◼
►
earlier in other hands it would probably
[TS]
01:21:07
◼
►
come off a lot worse but since there's
[TS]
01:21:10
◼
►
chops to sort of back it up here and
[TS]
01:21:12
◼
►
because the action is so electrifying
[TS]
01:21:14
◼
►
and that the actor to do such a great
[TS]
01:21:16
◼
►
job of capturing your attention
[TS]
01:21:18
◼
►
I don't find it as distracting as it
[TS]
01:21:20
◼
►
otherwise would have been I mean I've
[TS]
01:21:22
◼
►
seen rope a number of times now and it
[TS]
01:21:24
◼
►
still manages that scene you know that
[TS]
01:21:26
◼
►
Jason was talking about with the
[TS]
01:21:27
◼
►
housekeeper walking down the hall and
[TS]
01:21:30
◼
►
then all the way back like never
[TS]
01:21:31
◼
►
fails to like put a catching my breath
[TS]
01:21:33
◼
►
just it's so well-executed even having
[TS]
01:21:36
◼
►
seen this movie several times in knowing
[TS]
01:21:38
◼
►
exactly what was gonna happen afterwards
[TS]
01:21:40
◼
►
you still have that moment of like oh
[TS]
01:21:42
◼
►
dear god she's gonna open it in front of
[TS]
01:21:43

all these people that would be terrible
[TS]
01:21:45
◼
►
you know and so I think that it's it's
[TS]
01:21:48
◼
►
agree with Phil's you know casting this
[TS]
01:21:51
◼
►
as an underrated movie since I know it
[TS]
01:21:52
◼
►
didn't didn't do very well at the time
[TS]
01:21:54
◼
►
but it is technically I think there's a
[TS]
01:21:56
◼
►
lot of stuff going on here and it just
[TS]
01:21:58
◼
►
shows the breath and range of
[TS]
01:22:00
◼
►
Hitchcock's talent that he can do a
[TS]
01:22:02
◼
►
movie like this as well as a movie like
[TS]
01:22:04
◼
►
you know rear window you could argue is
[TS]
01:22:06
◼
►
gimmicky I think it's his best movie
[TS]
01:22:08
◼
►
that's my favorite of his but you know
[TS]
01:22:09
◼
►
you could certainly argue make an
[TS]
01:22:10
◼
►
argument for the gimmickry of it but he
[TS]
01:22:13
◼
►
key in some ways does really well when
[TS]
01:22:15
◼
►
he has those constraints to work with i
[TS]
01:22:16
◼
►
think it really brings out some of his
[TS]
01:22:18
◼
►
creativity
[TS]
01:22:19
◼
►
yeah I philly you know the reading up on
[TS]
01:22:23
◼
►
this film after I watched it to find out
[TS]
01:22:25
◼
►
that it was it seems to have generally
[TS]
01:22:27
◼
►
not gotten very good reviews and even
[TS]
01:22:29
◼
►
revisited it you know decades later it
[TS]
01:22:31
◼
►
didn't really get very good reviews also
[TS]
01:22:33
◼
►
that Hitchcock said that he thought it
[TS]
01:22:35
◼
►
was a failed experiment and that it was
[TS]
01:22:36
◼
►
essentially unseen force York's a decade
[TS]
01:22:40
◼
►
least favorite movie that he did with
[TS]
01:22:42
◼
►
Hitchcock he'd done enjoy this movie and
[TS]
01:22:44
◼
►
so I read all this after having watched
[TS]
01:22:46
◼
►
it and I thought wow everybody's wrong
[TS]
01:22:50
◼
►
yeah and maybe it's because it's 2015
[TS]
01:22:54
◼
►
now and and it's not 1948 but it from
[TS]
01:22:58
◼
►
the perspective of somebody watching it
[TS]
01:22:59
◼
►
for the first time in 2015
[TS]
01:23:01
◼
►
like I thought it was kinda terrific so
[TS]
01:23:03
◼
►
I felt like it was fresh in a way that i
[TS]
01:23:05
◼
►
have not experienced in awhile i've not
[TS]
01:23:08
◼
►
seen a film like this it's I mean it's
[TS]
01:23:10
◼
►
very the the language is very arch like
[TS]
01:23:13
◼
►
at the Broadway writing at the time and
[TS]
01:23:15
◼
►
I mean that's the only thing for me is
[TS]
01:23:17
◼
►
that I can conserve see the the stilted
[TS]
01:23:20
◼
►
language and that pulls me out of it a
[TS]
01:23:21
◼
►
little bit but I don't mind because the
[TS]
01:23:23
◼
►
tension is so good and and the yeah and
[TS]
01:23:26
◼
►
again it's it's like a really good
[TS]
01:23:28
◼
►
colombo like that I've seen it maybe
[TS]
01:23:30
◼
►
eight or nine times the dialogue the
[TS]
01:23:33
◼
►
dialogue is brackets can really take you
[TS]
01:23:36
◼
►
out of the movie if you pay too much
[TS]
01:23:38
◼
►
attention to it which is a weird thing
[TS]
01:23:40
◼
►
to say and the camera work in the movie
[TS]
01:23:42
◼
►
can really take you out of it
[TS]
01:23:44
◼
►
if you're focused on the camera work but
[TS]
01:23:46
◼
►
i really like the the tension of it i
[TS]
01:23:50
◼
►
like that it is the very definition of
[TS]
01:23:52
◼
►
suspense and I really think there's
[TS]
01:23:55
◼
►
something to be said we have this vision
[TS]
01:23:57
◼
►
of Jimmy Stewart as this clean-cut
[TS]
01:24:00
◼
►
all-american guy and in this movie is a
[TS]
01:24:02
◼
►
complete dick
[TS]
01:24:03
◼
►
yeah and I i really like movies where
[TS]
01:24:08
◼
►
Jimmy Stewart plays a dick anatomy after
[TS]
01:24:11
◼
►
the Thin Man anatomy of a murder at the
[TS]
01:24:13
◼
►
naked spur at these these are really
[TS]
01:24:15
◼
►
enjoyable movies which I i would
[TS]
01:24:18
◼
►
recommend even though he solves the
[TS]
01:24:19
◼
►
crime I mean what he's really saying is
[TS]
01:24:21
◼
►
hey I may I may have written about how
[TS]
01:24:24
◼
►
you should go ahead and kill people
[TS]
01:24:25
◼
►
without feeling bad but I didn't mean
[TS]
01:24:27
◼
►
for you to do it i mean it's not it is a
[TS]
01:24:30
◼
►
new host reaction he has because he's a
[TS]
01:24:34
◼
►
once and it's that he's realized that
[TS]
01:24:35
◼
►
this was all a huge mistake if you know
[TS]
01:24:38
◼
►
this this cause everything in his life
[TS]
01:24:40
◼
►
into question it is the dark version of
[TS]
01:24:42
◼
►
the Marshall McLuhan cameo and Annie
[TS]
01:24:44
◼
►
haha no might work this 1i i thought was

◼
►

[TS]
01:25:18
◼
►
fact that it's compact they get it all
[TS]
01:25:20
◼
►
done in an hour and 20 and we've seen
[TS]
01:25:22
◼
►
some films that are a little stretched
[TS]
01:25:23
◼
►
out just what you guys are saying you
[TS]
01:25:26
◼
►
like row better than singing in the rain

[TS]
01:25:42
◼
►
excrement our soul should yeah i think i

[TS]
01:25:48
◼
►
tough call money I've got to say both

[TS]
01:25:52
◼
►
great movies I like singing in the rain
[TS]
01:25:54
◼
►
a lot i think i probably would we watch

01:25:57
◼
►
first before I rewatching the others
[TS]
01:25:58
◼
►
sick so I so I've said that a shadow of
[TS]
01:26:02
◼
►
a doubt is my favorite and and more and
[TS]
01:26:03
◼
►
said that I think rear window is his
[TS]
01:26:06
◼
►
favorite Hitchcock movie did
[TS]
01:26:07
◼
►
does anyone else have a favorite
[TS]
01:26:09
◼
►
Hitchcock they want to throw out there
[TS]
01:26:10
◼
►
but I actually like the 39 steps a whole
[TS]
01:26:14
◼
►
lot of the 39 steps I i really enjoy the
[TS]
01:26:17
◼
►
I we we could discuss that now but i
[TS]
01:26:19
◼
►
think this podcast with last five hours
[TS]
01:26:21
◼
►
indeed he started to throw out super fun
[TS]
01:26:24
◼
►
like North by Northwest but more action
[TS]
01:26:27
◼
►
yeah and harder to understand yeah I i
[TS]
01:26:31
◼
►
love North by Northwest just because but
[TS]
01:26:36
◼
►
I love fun what you love
[TS]
01:26:38
◼
►
find anything crazy well I've seen all
[TS]
01:26:40
◼
►
of for Hitchcock movies including these
[TS]
01:26:42
◼
►
two and i gotta say i'm a psycho guy but
[TS]
01:26:46
◼
►
that's you know that's just a second
[TS]
01:26:48
◼
►
house it's charts
[TS]
01:26:49
◼
►
secondly I think it i think the the
[TS]
01:26:51
◼
►
great thing about psycho is there or the
[TS]
01:26:53
◼
►
things i like about it is the is so much
[TS]
01:26:55
◼
►
of the stuff that doesn't have to do
[TS]
01:26:56
◼
►
with the everybody boils down to the
[TS]
01:26:58
◼
►
shower scene or you know the Norman
[TS]
01:27:00
◼
►
Bates reveal sort of at the end and
[TS]
01:27:02
◼
►
there is so much more going on in that
[TS]
01:27:04
◼
►
yes it's a fascinating movie I i just
[TS]
01:27:07
◼
►
cannot have seen a number of times for
[TS]
01:27:09
◼
►
film classes and things like that it's
[TS]
01:27:10
◼
►
just everytime i watch it a secret
[TS]
01:27:12
◼
►
there's so much stuff going on here that
[TS]
01:27:13
◼
►
you don't even pay attention to its all
[TS]
01:27:15
◼
►
these different movies and one and I
[TS]
01:27:17
◼
►
think some of the best stuff happens
[TS]
01:27:18
◼
►
with so great even turns up
[TS]
01:27:20
◼
►
well as I mean if it is essentially a
[TS]
01:27:22
◼
►
psychotic movie is a movie that has a
[TS]
01:27:24
◼
►
psychotic break because it starts in one
[TS]
01:27:25
◼
►
place and go someplace cold never ended
[TS]
01:27:28
◼
►
well that's not really my father going
[TS]
01:27:30
◼
►
to see psycho in the theater was one of
[TS]
01:27:32
◼
►
his like I mean to this day one of his
[TS]
01:27:34
◼
►
favorite film going experiences because
[TS]
01:27:36
◼
►
nobody said anything nobody knew what it
[TS]
01:27:39
◼
►
was about nobody boiled it
[TS]
01:27:41
◼
►
yeah you get 20 minutes into the movie
[TS]
01:27:43
◼
►
and suddenly wait a minute you just
[TS]
01:27:45
◼
►
killed the main character
[TS]
01:27:47
◼
►
what the hell's going on huh you could
[TS]
01:27:49
◼
►
argue that's gimmicky to but it like
[TS]
01:27:50
◼
►
again and different in different hands
[TS]
01:27:52
◼
►
that might not that might have been a
[TS]
01:27:54
◼
►
terrible movie but Hitchcock can pull it
[TS]
01:27:56
◼
►
I'm gonna go with the understand by the
[TS]
01:27:59
◼
►
way and say that I think we're window is
[TS]
01:28:00
◼
►
my favorite peanuts
[TS]
01:28:02
◼
►
it's not a classy answer but I actually
[TS]
01:28:05
◼
►
really like Alfred Hitchcock Presents
[TS]
01:28:06
◼
►
there are not a lot of
[TS]
01:28:08
◼
►
respected directors that have a theme
[TS]
01:28:10
◼
►
song that come from their comics /
[TS]
01:28:13
◼
►
mccobb anthology television show
[TS]
01:28:17
◼
►
I respect that about him and there are a
[TS]
01:28:18
◼
►
lot of good episodes that Samsung people
[TS]
01:28:20
◼
►
still remember to yeah my favorite
[TS]
01:28:24
◼
►
probably has to be dial M for murder
[TS]
01:28:26
◼
►
oh because you're my love as I like
[TS]
01:28:29
◼
►
psycho but the problem with it is that
[TS]
01:28:31
◼
►
for me I see it once and then I see it
[TS]
01:28:34
◼
►
twice and there's really I have to I
[TS]
01:28:36
◼
►
have to be enjoying only like the craft
[TS]
01:28:38
◼
►
of it there really nothing else I can
[TS]
01:28:40
◼
►
really save her
[TS]
01:28:41
◼
►
what I love about dial M for murder is
[TS]
01:28:43
◼
►
Ray Milland the greatest to me the
[TS]
01:28:45
◼
►
greatest Hitchcock murderer ever because
[TS]
01:28:48
◼
►
he is so clever and he's showing so much
[TS]
01:28:51
◼
►
agility he has what is legitimately a
[TS]
01:28:53
◼
►
really really good well-thought-out plan
[TS]
01:28:56
◼
►
and then something throws a monkey
[TS]
01:28:58
◼
►
wrench in it and instead of like oh my
[TS]
01:29:00
◼
►
god I got cover this up its wait a
[TS]
01:29:01
◼
►
minute this could be even better and
[TS]
01:29:04
◼
►
this really is the classic case of I
[TS]
01:29:05
◼
►
kind of hope he gets away with it
[TS]
01:29:08
◼
►
yeah because he's he deserves the win in
[TS]
01:29:11
◼
►
that sense and the other great thing is
[TS]
01:29:12
◼
►
that the inspector who is this little
[TS]
01:29:14
◼
►
running around expect our it's back to
[TS]
01:29:17
◼
►
talk to them for yall already like
[TS]
01:29:19
◼
►
Rockets did you stab silly bunny sudden
[TS]
01:29:22
◼
►
that you already had one key sound but
[TS]
01:29:25
◼
►
really watching rainbow laughter watch
[TS]
01:29:27
◼
►
ray milland do that to do that the movie
[TS]
01:29:30
◼
►
once every month for the rest of my life
[TS]
01:29:32
◼
►
and never get bored with it i also have
[TS]
01:29:35
◼
►
thought was lucky enough to see a 3d
[TS]
01:29:37
◼
►
screening of this game you're speaking
[TS]
01:29:39
◼
►

[TS]
01:29:41
◼
►
you don't have to see it in 3di I was on
[TS]
01:29:44
◼
►
3d like maybe the tenth time I saw an
[TS]
01:29:47
◼
►

[TS]
01:29:49
◼
►
3d USA for the 3d you want all three
[TS]
01:29:52
◼
►
dimensions happen but it's made maybe
[TS]
01:29:55
◼
►
that's also the benefit of having had
[TS]
01:29:56
◼
►
the opportunity to see it does i didn't
[TS]
01:29:58
◼
►
think was terribly gimmicky whenever
[TS]
01:30:00
◼
►
when I started like in flat land but
[TS]
01:30:03
◼
►
when i saw it in the UU basic you have

[TS]
01:30:16
◼
►
between you and the thing you want to
[TS]
01:30:18
◼
►
see at the entire audience leans to the

[TS]
01:30:23

[TS]
01:30:25
◼
►
this guy knew how to deal with 3d yeah
[TS]
01:30:28
◼
►
so to counteract this positivity 44
[TS]
01:30:31
◼
►

01:30:34
◼
►
