STRANGERS ON A TRAIN
Tennis champ Guy Haines (Farley Granger) meets mysterious, overly admiring Bruno Antony (Robert Walker) on a train from New York to Washington, DC, and receives a startling proposal: Bruno will kill Guy's unfaithful wife in return for Guy killing Bruno's hated father. Alfred Hitchcock's ingeniously choreographed thriller begins like a farce, but through tightly scripted narrative turns and masterful cinematic design, the suspense is ratcheted up toward a show-stopping finale. DIR/PROD Alfred Hitchcock; SCR Raymond Chandler, Czenzi Ormonde, Whitfield Cook, from the novel by Patricia Highsmith. U.S., 1951, b&w, 101 min. NOT RATED
