Alfred Hitchcock summoned darker shades of suspense and passion by casting two of Hollywood’s most beloved stars starkly against type. Alicia, an alluring woman with a checkered past is recruited by Devlin, a suave, mysterious intelligence agent, to seduce and spy on a Nazi industrialist hiding in South America. Coupling inventive cinematography with brilliantly subtle turns from his mesmerizing leads, Hitchcock orchestrates a thriller of rare perfection.
