Strangers on a Train, 1951 - ★★★★


Expertly made, although not even Hitchcock can convince me that endless games of tennis are thrilling. It says a lot about how well the film is made that it continues to be thrilling and engaging throughout the many nonsense moments that I suspect a modern audience would struggle to overlook. It will be really interesting to see what Gillian Flynn and David Fincher do with their planned remake.
