Skuggan av ett tvivel

Shadow of a Doubt

...en liten, intim film som får oss att le åt det vackraste i mänskligheten och förfäras av det värsta.

This is certainly one of Hitchcock’s most satisfying thrillers, mostly thanks to Wright and Cotten’s believable relationship.

...it is framed so distinctively in theHitchcock style that it plays firmly and never breaks out of the story.

...Shadow of a Doubt is the picture where Alfred Hitchcock first discovered America, locating the mirror image for the ominous instability lurking barely an inch under the cozy surfaces of his native England.

This is Hitchcock's most penetrating analysis of a murderer--a masterful profile, aided by Cotten's superb performance, of a subtle killer who cannot escape his dark passions, despite a superior intellect.
