    I'll get the first clue out around 10pm. Gotta go back and watch the movie again when I get home.

    Another clue: this was the only movie Grace Kelly ever smoked in while on screen.

    You're making it too easy... I know what it is, but just won one so I'm sitting this one out.

    Awwh come on, Peter. You know you're ready for another fiver  ;)

    Wasn't getting any bites. Figured the majority of the young guns on here hadn't seen this one.

    TCM just did a Hitchcock marathon last month, and I watched it twice, so it was easy to remember.  Let some other brother win it.

    We can sneak clues in. I didn't catch all the rules.

    Yeah I caught the marathon - never pass up on Hitchcock. I wish they'd rerun some if his Alfred Hitchcock Presents... shows.

    Thanks for sneaking in a clue Peter. Here's another quote: Let me borrow that portable keyhole.

    The Hitchcock and Truffaut documentary was very good.

    Totally off topic, but any of you guys a fan of Noir Alley on TCM? I'd love to have a smoking room like the set they use!

    My only gripe is they run the show at 10AM on Sunday mornings. Film Noirs should only be viewed at night with a good cigar and bourbon/brandy.

    Alright so we've established it's a Hitchcock film. Here's another clue.

    Hitch had a long-standing grudge with his former producer, David O. Selznick. The director believed Selznick had meddled too much with his movies, so much so that Hitchcock actually disowned his first film with the producer, Rebecca. His ties to Selznick ended with the 1947 movie The Paradine Case, though, so Hitch decided to enact a sly bit of revenge onscreen.

    It involved this movie's villain. Hitchcock gave the actor glasses just like Selznick’s and other facial features to match. He also instructed him to adopt many of the producer's mannerisms, such as the way he cradled a telephone in his neck. When all was said and done, the murderous character looked a lot like Selznick, no doubt to the producer’s supreme annoyance.
