April Classics : Dial M for Murder
Detalles
Its Hitchcock time again!
Dial M for Murder (1954) is a marvelous mystery starring Grace Kelly, Ray Milland, Robert Cummings and John Williams. Can you figure it out before the ending?
In addition to several award nominations and wins, it is listed by the American Film Institute as one of the top ten films in the mystery category.
Interestingly, it was shot but rarely shown in 3-D.
Although the dialog is somewhat theatrical, as is adapted from a play of the same name, it is nevertheless a prime example of Hitchcock's brilliance.
For this watch party we will be using kosmi.io.
1. After evaluation of a several apps by Josh, Joyce and I, we will be trying out kosmi.io.
I requires no software to be installed and will run on almost any platform.
It requires a browser such as Chrome. But I have tested it on Firefox (with Linux) and Joyce has tested it on an iPad.
Although it does not technically require a logon, for security purposes we all really should.
When you enter the room there will be a signup button. With it you can signup with your google id, Apple Id, or an email and password.
I created a video that has some hints and instructions.
