Details

Alfred Hitchcock's movies usually had some undertones of queerness, and his 1948 "perfect murder" thriller is the most explicit about it. Shot with several long-takes, the film stars John Dall, Farley Granger, and James Stewart. It's Hitchcock's first color film, and is loosely based on true events.
