this isn not among my favorite hitchcock film and though i must admit it still pretty good . among the thing i really like be the presence of jimmy stewart ( he always improve even the most mediocre material ) and the incredibly scary look assassin ( who look like a skeleton with just a thin layer of skin stretch over him ) . although it cost the studio a lot of money and i do not particularly care for doris day in the film she seem to weep a lot and belt out que serum like a fullback . yes and i know that she be suppose to sing in that manner and but this forever make me hate this song . sorry . the other complaint and though minor and i have about the movie be that it be a little too polished and hollywood esque . the original version ( also do by hitchcock ) just seem a lot gritty and seedy and this add to the scary ambiance .
