Part of Joel's quest to see all of Hitchcock.
Cary Grant is a man of questionable background and motive who seduces and marries a wealthy Joan Fontaine. Thanks to circumstances surrounding her marriage and new life, she begins to suspect her husband of first having murdered a friend and then of trying to murder her. In typical Hitchcock fashion, we're never quite sure of anything (even at the end of this one really)--to the point that you really can't tell if he's murderous but charming enough to get away with it or if she's crazy and wildly suspicious.
It's well done. There is other Hitchcock I prefer but this one is worth watching if it happens to come on TV or something.
