MY NETFLIX MOVIE REVIEWS #212


Following the conviction of her German father for treason against the U.S., Alicia Huberman takes to drink and men. She is approached by a government agent (T.R. Devlin) who asks her to spy on a group of her father's Nazi friends operating out of Rio de Janeiro. A romance develops between Alicia and Devlin, but she starts to get too involved in her work. Written by Col Needham (Courtesy of Internet Movie Database)

NOTORIOUS (1946) is directed by Alfred Hitchcock, written by Ben Hecht, and produced by Alfred Hitchcock. Of the many films made by Alfred, Hitchcock NOTORIOUS was one of the few I hadn’t seen. 

Upon watching, I, of course, had a sense of what to expect, having seen numerous films on the life and movies of Hitchcock. Yet the father of suspense as he is known still had me as the story developed, wondering how it would all play out.

In the End: NOTORIOUS was a joy to watch from the story, cinematography, and on-screen chemistry between Grant & Bergman. So I give the film 3.5 of 5 stars.
