movies are too predictable. I sat down to watch this movie with just that type of attitude particularly because this movie carried the same story line as "A Perfect Murder" which was an extremely predictable movie. At first I began to make assumptions about what would happen next and ultimately how the movie would end. I didn't really focus on paying sole attention to this movie; I was in and out of the room until the movie began to capture me with its storyline, which proved to be quite different from what I had in mind. From the very beginning this movie stayed on track, which was very important to me, and it held my interest with both the "A" and "B" storyline. It carried a whirlwind of unexpected twists and turns that keeps you wondering and on the edge of your seat anticipating what is to come.

Throughout this movie I paid particular attention to how actors spoke their lines. There is nothing I despise more than an actor who sounds like their lines are recited like a bible verse in Sunday school. The actors immediately caught my attention and kept me drawn into this movie with the way in which they carried themselves i.e.: facial expressions, body language.

One of the other things I look for in a movie is whether the characters look like the part they play. The wife played by Grace Kelly held that dainty, innocent, housewife look while the husband carried the look of a villain and a pompous ass with which we should expect to see some foolishness come out of. Another thing that I look for is how does the overall picture on the television look? Is the set interesting? Does it fit the storyline? And is it boring to sit through a whole movie in which 90% of the movie carries the same backdrop? Which was the living room set. However what did help to break the monotony in the movie was how the movie went to a street scene in which you actually were able to see cars moving which gave you a sense of reality and broke the pattern of the living room scene.

Overall this was a fascinating movie, which I would definitely view again. This movie "fooled" me, which I was glad for because for once I had predicted an ending that was incorrect. It has also opened me up to want to rent more movies from Alfred Hitchcock in hopes that they too will have a twisted ending and storyline that will catch me off guard.

Scenes in this movie which particularly caught my attention was how the husband was playing out the murder scene to "Laskitt" which was one of the characters many aliases, how the camera panned the whole room from the ceiling giving us, the audience an overall sense of how the next set of events would pan out. Another scene that particularly caught my attention was when the "perfect murder" was to actually occur how the camera did a swooping motion around Margo while she was standing at the phone to make you
