Am I the only one...

I might seem 'boring' but I didn't want him to get away. I actually thought from the 2 things he did - hiring a hitman to kill his wife, and manipulating evidence so that she is found guilty of murder and executed - the second one was worse. If she had been murdered, then at least she would not have been subject to the humiliation to be sentenced for a crime she did not commit and also face death row and an execution. In the first case, her husband deprived her of her life, but in the second - both of her life and her dignity. I hardly believed he was so villainous to the point of having his wife executed while he was drinking brandy at his home (bought with her money), didn't he have a shred of conscience?

I hated Mark in this movie - such a self-righteous and egotistical idiot. Keep this is mind: even when Mark thought that Swann was responsible for the murder, he still asked Tony to take the fall for Margot! Essentially, Mark asked him: "Hey Tony! Take the fall for us, spend a few years in prison while I continue to bang your wife!" Is Mark high? Why would Tony do that? Don't get me wrong Tony as still responsible for the entire scheme, but imagine the nerve Mark had asking TOny to do all of these things.

But then again, I think that Hitchcock wanted all three characters to be despicable. Tony was WAY out of line hiring someone to murder his wife, Margot is a gold digger and cheater, and Mark….well I goes explain why we should hate Mark.

Its not just the Texan in you lol. I feel the same way you do.

What was particularly ironic about this movie is that it is Ray Milland who is, in real life while film this movie, the married man having an affair with his attractive, unmarried co-star.
