I Confess
One of Hitchcock's most overtly 'serious' and fateful wreck plots, almost a Catholic servant of God who faces the passing...
I Confess
Dismissed away the critics and shunned by the public, this is perchance Alfred Hitchcock's most eye-rated film. In many ways, it shares the transference of guilt piece he had explored in his previous silver screen, Strangers on a Train. But what alienated many audiences was an unfamiliarity with the codes of Catholicism that baffle a woman of God from betraying the secrets of the confessional. Seen today, this is a legendary Hitchcock "bad cuff" story, which makes marvellous use of its Quebec settings. Montgomery Clift's simple haunted look is idyllic, but some of his Method mannerisms joggle. Talky, grave and difficult, but long late pro reappraisal, the screen was incorporated into the patch of 1995's The Confessional, directed at hand Robert Lepage.
