Review of Number 17

Number 17 (1932)
Pure cinema?
6 January 2022
This always struck me as one of those "what if..." ideas Hitch liked to conceptualize. The opening is somewhat similar to Monroe Stahr's prescription for a movie: unknown motives compelling gripping actions.

This is definitely one of those executions and although it is low budget I think ingenuity and creativity save the day. And I love the model work with the trains! I always site this as my favorite Hitchcock film, mostly to see people's expressions.
