Review
Hitchcock in full gear, telling story of suave London strangler
(Foster) and innocent man (Finch) suspected of murder spree. All
classic Hitchcock elements are here, including delicious black
humor, several astounding camera shots. Script by Anthony Shaffer.

Cameo

of the film in the crowd - he is the only one not applauding the speaker.
