rarely will anyone deny that hitchcock remain one of the most creative and inventive and prolific director of all time and because he be arguably all of these thing . it take true genius to scare generation of film goer out of take shower and wear neck tie . saboteur and however and be not creative or prolific at all . rather and hitchcock set out with the soul intention of create a film to muster american pride and a certain call to arm and support our troop title which be a popular theme of the time . with that in mind and hitchcock severely underplayed other important aspect of the film and include but not limited to a logical plot and characterization and believable dialog and and a fluent and run storyline . typically hitchcock do great with espionage film and only a few year earlier achieve cinematic greatness with the foreign corespondant and the 39 step and but seemingly lose his stride in create saboteur and merely recycle the same once thrill story line both his previous excursion readily provide . without go into any great depth here be a list of a few of this film major problem represent 1. despite have his face plaster on every newspaper across america and the only person who recognize kane be blind . 2. at the dinner party and kane and patricia do not want to run for the door because the bad guy might grab them and tell the party they be gate crasher . logically and what prevent the spy from grab them and say this at any point during the evening . besides and do anyone need to be remind kane be a wanted terrorist . 3. since when can a fan belt cut through handcuff . 4. nobody recognize him . his face be on every newspaper . 5. the spy catch up with kane in the ghost town and assume he the man freeman send to work with them . shouldn nott he have some sort of credential . i know spy do not run around with name tag and photo id but a secret handshake maybe . 6. cop pick up kane escape from freeman house and still seem no one recognize this guy . 7. how exactly do the fbi come to believe kane with no evidence . they do not even show kane talk to the fbi and the scene simply fade in and we be force to assume everything be now kosher . 8. when the cop search the carnival caravan how do they know kane be now with a woman . the blind man believe kane story thus logically would not have report his daughter miss and kidnap and or even more importantly run with kane . why do this movie not employ logic . this be a running list . the movie be not exciting and the plot make no sense and and the world be full of people who willingly take wanted terrorist into their home and car everyday because it no big thing . hitchcock fail miserably on this one .
