Alfred Hitchcock's supposed classic. I say supposed because, though the
film has much to recommend it, it never really clicked for me. Maybe
Gregory Peck didn't convince me, or the laughable idea of Ingrid
Bergman--roughly 21 years old at the time of filming--as a psychiatrist
pushed my suspension of disbelief too far, or...actually, I can't really
put my finger on it. You can watch it, and you'll probably like it, but
you can also forget it, too. Pick your poison.
