A Mad Killer Hides Out in Small Town America: Shadow of a Doubt (1943) by Bill Hare Joseph Cotten was in a nervous frame of mind when he asked to see Alfred Hitchcock , the director of his next film. Ever so casually, Hitchcock, who did not drive a car, asked an apprehensive Cotten to drive him to downtown Beverly Hills. Cotten explained the source of his anxiety; here he was being asked to play a homicidal maniac in Hitchcock’s next film and he was in a quandary wondering how a killer would...Read Full Story

Andrew L. Stone Double Feature Posted by darkdave With few readily recognizable titles in his oeuvre, and no flashy signature style to speak of, filmmaker Andrew L. Stone 's impact on Hollywood during his lengthy career might be deemed negligible. The serious noirhead will look back a bit more fondly though, recalling the flurry of well-crafted and often location-shot thrillers Stone wrote, directed, and collaborated on with his wife - editor and producer Virginia Stone. Having spent decades...Read Full Story

Posted by Curt on 6/11/2006, 9:58 pm When I first saw this movie a few years ago, I mainly enjoyed it because of Wendell Corey's excellent performance.

I'm Joseph Cotten
Tuesday It is really late at night. And it's cold as heck. And my pool heater in Beverly Hills is not working right and I am tired. But, I am not throwing a fit. I am not yelling at anyone. I have every right to be cranky. I drove all the way down from Rancho Mirage with barely a break. I did that after an emotional meal with my pal, J., a hero of modern warfare. He's an infantry sergeant in the U.S. Army. He has been in Afghanistan twice and...
