Well, I finished it, and it was rubbish indeed. Arguably one
of Hitchcock's worst, and I've seen most of 'em. Totally
pointless. But check out Francois Truffaut's interview book
with Hitch and you'll find a much better ending that never
was.
Btw, I checked your webpage , and I must say I disagree about
NORTH BY NORTHWEST and THE BIRDS, I actually like them. But
what the heck, everyone has seen those already.

Like I said, it may be just another stupid and empty snipe at
Welles.

You'll get no argument from me. One of Hitchcock's many
non-movies.
