The Trouble with Harry

1955 • 99 minuten

Over deze film

Academy Award winner Edmund Gwenn, John Forsythe, Mildred Natwick and Jerry Mathers star in this charming comedy mystery. The trouble with Harry is that he's dead, and while no one really minds, everyone feels responsible. Academy Award winner Shirley MacLaine makes her screen debut in this New England romp that includes romance, humor...and several unearthings of the corpse. In The Trouble with Harry, the Master of Suspense proves the range of his genius with a decidedly different work.

(In Color) What a incredibly fun, funny, and refreshing forgotten black comedy Alfred Hitchcock gem! It's definitely one of those types of movies that's better to go into without knowing ANYTHING about it, but I'll let you in on some helpful info. Other than a discovered corpse, there's no violence shown so it's a movie anyone could enjoy. The other thing you need to know is that Hitchcock absolutely made this movie to mess with the audience so prepare to be tricked in many delightful ways.

Hitchcock's post-World War 2 collection of films are defined by Rear Window, Vertigo, and North by Northwest; everyone who loves films has seen these 3 classics. In this film the colours captured are amazing and bring a lightness to the film and it is listed as a "comedic-mystery" but it's a very dark. While other Hitchcock flicks can seem wildly far fetched making them true horror films that are difficult to believe could ever take place in the real life, this story is well grounded in reality and could be

Classic Hitchcock, if you have never seen this movie I highly recommend it. And for the Hitchcock fans...his cameo is about 22 minutes into the film :)
