Right up there on Hitchcock's "A" list with the biggies, (Vertigo, N. by N.W., etc.), yet somehow not as widely talked about as it deserves. Intense suspense from the master of it, with a romantic pairing of two icons who could carry a Hefty bag and make it smell like roses. Ingrid really shines here (Cary was great, too). And Claude Rains' mother was scarier than the Gestapo. FIVE STARS.

A perfect movie! The romance between Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman, without bedroom scenes and nudity, is one of the most sensual in movie history.

Alicia: "Dev, is that you? I'm glad you're late. This chicken took longer than I expected. I hope it isn't done too much. It caught fire once..."
