3.7/5EXECUTIONER "ACE"
Mr. & Mrs. Smith (1941)
Directed by Alfred Hitchcock
3.7/5EXECUTIONER "ACE"Quick Hit
Hitchcock does screwball and lands more punches than people admit.
Full Take
This is the outlier everybody points at, but it works because Hitchcock understands humiliation, timing, and romantic warfare. The comedy has real snap, and the bickering carries an edge that keeps it from floating away. Not major, definitely fun.
