Quick Hit

The remake is smoother, grander, and still knows exactly where to squeeze.

Full Take

The 1956 version trades some of the original's rough danger for scale and emotional polish, but it earns that trade. Hitchcock turns family panic into international suspense with immaculate control, and the set pieces land like cathedral bells. Big studio craftsmanship, zero slack.
