Foreign Correspondent
Hitchcock’s second American movie is an up-to-the-minute, brilliantly designed (Wm Cameron Menzies) international espionage thriller, a prototype for his subsequent Hollywood career. Full of memorable setpieces and sporting a snappy script by Charles Bennett, Joan Harrison, James Hilton and Robert Benchley! Released days before the blitz of Britain, the final scene is stirring even today. Here’s Glenn Erickson on the new Criterion blu-ray restoration.
