When a local man's corpse appears on a nearby hillside, no one is quite sure what happened to him. Many of the town's residents secretly wonder if they are responsible, including the man's ex-wife, Jennifer, and Capt. Albert Wiles, a retired seaman who was hunting in the woods where the body was found. As the no-nonsense sheriff gets involved and local artist Sam Marlowe offers his help, the community slowly unravels the mystery.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A darkly comic autumn fable where a small Vermont town's secrets unravel around a mysteriously dead body, treating murder and morality with genial irreverence. Hitchcock finds humor in human nature rather than plot mechanics.
