Editor's Notes

Note

Part of Universal's Hitchcock 4K rollout alongside Shadow of a Doubt and Rope. The black and white photography is preserved in its original 4:3 ratio. Underrated even among Hitchcock fans, with reviewers calling it vastly overlooked. The Statue of Liberty climax is the sequence everyone remembers.
