How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A brilliant thriller that traps you in an escalating nightmare of blackmail and murder, where a chance encounter on a train becomes a stranglehold on an ordinary man's life. Hitchcock's mastery of suspense turns the mundane, a lighter, a conversation, a garden party, into instruments of dread.
