Give a Man Enough Rope....

|
Pros: Acting, unique directorial approach makes us part of the movie
Cons: Slight overacting at times
The Bottom Line: This movie is a wonderful example of what a suspense film should be.
Review: I must have started with some of Hitchcock's weirder efforts. I almost completely wrote him off after seeing three of his "classics" that I thought were pretty bad. But I kept on and began to find some gems. The latest of those is Rope, a study ...

A Halloween Dialogue with Dostoevsky |
|||||
|
Pros: Excellent writing. Ambitious filmmaking. Tense. Every minute counts.
Cons: Some people really do kill just to see what its like and prove they can.
The Bottom Line: Hitchcocks best.
Review: While much can be said about the differences between film and literature, the fact remains that the quality of all but the most experimental of films is first and foremost dependent on its screenplay. Even a director like Alfred Hitchcock, who at times ...

The Talented Mr. Hitchcock

|
Pros: Great companion to "Rear Window"
Cons: No cameo
Review: I could not help but dig the following things about "Rope":
* Naturally it's pretty neat how the movie is a series of eight-minute takes (the maximum length of a film reel in 1948). But what's even neater is how, in one of the takes,... |

|
|||
|
Pros: engaging, fascinating, disturbing
Cons: a little dated
Review: Rope was Alfred Hitchcock's first film as a director independent of the suffocating studio system. Based in concept on the Leopold and Loeb murders, the film centers on two men who murder a friend of theirs for fun. To make the crime more...

|
Pros: Great Performances, ingenious script and plot
Cons: May be too abstract for conventional viewers
The Bottom Line: An intense movie with a witty tone, which is both extremely suspenseful and entertaining - see it. now.
Review: An absolutely magnificent experiment in film making by Alfred Hitchcock.
The film tells the tale of two young homosexuals (Farley Granger and John Dall in fine form) who in order to obtain intellectual thrills and enlightenment murder a... |

Psycho thriller!

|
|||
|
Pros: Technical perfection. Direction. Acting.
Cons: To many people will avoid it simply because it was made in 1948.
Review: Long before Psycho was even a twinkle in Hitchcock's eye, or the subtle horror of Rear Window was ink on paper, there was Rope. A magnificent character study, in real time, of the warped logic of two psychology students as they morbidly choke their...

Hitchcock Unfiltered

|
|||
|
Pros: Hitckcock directed it you fool!
Cons: The ending is a little anti-climatic
Review: In "Rope", Hitchcock gives you just enough of it in the opening shot to hang your suspicions that this is a typical Hitchcock film. Two men kill another with a rope. That's the opening! It's simply too enthralling for you to even...

Rope

|
Pros: entertaining and intellectual
Cons: missed the cameo
Review: I saw this as a double feature with 'Vertigo' and it was one of my best movie-going nights of the Hitchcock festival at a nearby theater. I left the theater thinking about the difference between having ideas intellectually and living them, about the...

Rope - An Overlooked Hitchcock Gem |
|||
|
Pros: Interesting plot. Jimmy Stewart.
Cons: Could be too slow for some viewers. Could have been more suspenseful.
The Bottom Line: Rope was a very entertaining movie that hinted at future Hitchcock movies.
Review: Alfred Hitchcock became known for creating several wonderful, suspenseful movies. I have seen and enjoyed several of them and even own a few. There are still some of his movies that I haven rsquo;t seen. I recently watched Rope< b>< i> for the ...

Niles and Frasier Kill Their Friend for Kicks |
|||||
|
Pros: Very intense, macabre, lesser-known Hitchcock Great; James Stewart
Cons: ...not sure...
The Bottom Line: Are you SURE you're the one who could get away with it?
Review: A psycho at work recommended this movie to me--he's a Competition Juggler with several State Championships under his belt, and his a really nice guy, but my only other conversation with him about movies was when he talked about "Full Metal Jacket," and...
