CLASSIC HITCHCOCK



Oldies were all about the script and the lines the actors say. No special effects, minimal gore, just plain old suspense, intellectual conversations and the details. This especially refers to the crime stories of the 1950s and 1960s and among them, the ones that made Alfred Hitchcock into one of the greatest film directors of all times.

„Rope” is one of the best situation thrillers placed inside a single room during its entire course. Two murderers who are inviting friends to a party just to serve them on a improvised casket just so they can endulge their urge to rejoice their successful endeavour is just a great concept as a standalone feature, but when joined by some meticulous dialogues and great acting (Stewart), the viewer gets a memorable movie experience that will echo in the cinematographic eternity.

„Rope” is one of the best movies Alfred Hitchcock made and one of the most original murder mysteries ever.

INCREDIBLE STORY



True stories tend to get a bit artificially sweetened in their movie interpretations, but that fact won't necessary mean that a bad script will emerge.

Story about the first man who walked on a wire stretched out between the twin towers of World Trade Center will bring you a lot of common places and some truly mesmerizing action sequences of the walk itself.

Casting is solid, with Joseph Joseph Gordon-Levitt leading the way, while Robert Zemeckis does his trademark reliable directing to the very end.

„The Walk” is one incredible story that deserved to be on the big screen long time ago and one of the best epitaphs for 9/11.
