Family Plot (1976)
Directed by Alfred Hitchcock
Quick Hit
A final sly grin from a master who still knows where to cut.
Full Take
Family Plot is lighter than Frenzy, but it is hardly soft. Hitchcock turns frauds, kidnappers, and coincidence into a cheerful little machine of deception, keeping the tone buoyant while the craft stays razor sharp. A graceful, mischievous farewell.
