If you loved Strangers on a Train, try Rope

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Alfred Hitchcock, and they both carry the paranoid mood tag, and they sit in Crime / Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Strangers on a Train, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

paranoid

What Rope is

New York apartment, evening, a strangling cord. A dinner party for the victim's family, the killers' smug facade, a hidden body. Hitchcock tests the audience's comfort.
