Rope
It begins with a shriek...it ends with a shot! From beginning to end, nothing ever held you like Alfred Hitchcock's ROPE!
Directed by Alfred Hitchcock
Produced by Transatlantic Pictures
A claustrophobic, philosophically charged thriller that traps viewers in a single apartment as two murderers play a dangerous game of intellectual superiority with their guests.
Two young men attempt to prove they committed the perfect murder by hosting a dinner party for the family of a classmate they just strangled to death.
