Quick Hit

A handcuffed sprint through danger, flirtation, and pure movie electricity.

Full Take

This is Hitchcock discovering how much pleasure can live inside panic. The pacing is immaculate, the set pieces crack, and the chemistry between fear and screwball wit feels almost impossible to improve on. A foundational chase thriller that still runs hot.
