The only thing more thrilling than watching a sophisticated, chilling Hitchcock thriller is watching it in 3D! Come for the dastardly schemes of Ray Milland, stay for the twists and an outstanding Grace Kelly.
Originally shot in 3D and now remastered and restored, Alfred Hitchcock's screen version of Frederick Knott's stage hit Dial M for Murder is a tasty blend of elegance and suspense casting Grace Kelly, Ray Milland, and Robert Cummings as the points of a romantic triangle. Realizing his wife Kelly loves Cummings, ex-tennis pro Milland concocts a devious plot to murder her. But when he dials a Mayfair exchange to set things in motion, his right number gets the wrong answer—and gleaming scissors become a deadly weapon. [105 min; thriller; English]
