Leírás:The programme analyzes and assesses this “spy film” by Hitchcock based on the novel by Campell Dixon, following the great success of his previous film “THE 39 STEPS”. The main characters are spies, double-spies and a train that will function “as one of Hitchcock’s most symbolic and effective directorial vehicles”: “the wagons follow one the other in the same way that scenes are linked in the film - enabling the viewer to travel to the last Station”.
The presentation praises the “transformations” of the actors. Finally, it notes that neither the public nor the reviews of the time embraced the film due to the
"charming depiction of Evil".
