Chez Classics at GV: Stage Fright with John Anzalone

Let's join the lovely Chez folks and John Anzalone for a mini Hitchcock series! John will do brief intro and Lecture/Q&A after for anyone interested.

Alfred Hitchcock’s theatre-centered mystery, from 1950, shows how good actors get away with murder. Marlene Dietrich plays Charlotte Inwood, a star of the London stage, who recruits her caddish boyfriend, Jonathan Cooper (Richard Todd), to help conceal her husband’s suspicious death. Jonathan, in turn, recruits his steadfast girlfriend, Eve Gill (Jane Wyman), a student at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, to help him slip out of town. Eve takes matters into her own hands and launches her own investigation, but when a handsome detective (Michael Wilding) is put on the case her affections begin to waver. As deceptions and disguises pile up, the layers of mystery grow thicker, and the lurid symbolism of material objects is thrust to the fore. In the portrayal of Eve’s father, an urbane and audacious seaman dubbed Commodore (Alastair Sim), Hitchcock conjures a deep-rooted, irony-rich complicity of father and daughter that seems borrowed from the films of Howard Hawks and suggests the inner compass that helps to guard against chasing the wrong man.
