				Why watch this? 
				It's classic Hitchcock, loaded with, you guessed it, suspense! 
				Plot Summary:  
				Former tennis player Tony Wendice plots to have his wealthy 
				wife, Margot, murdered for her inheritance after discovering her 
				affair. He blackmails an acquaintance into carrying out the deed 
				while creating an alibi for himself. However, the plan goes 
				awry, and Tony must quickly devise a new strategy to avoid 
				getting caught. Dad's Preview: 
				Alfred Hitchcock brings us this tale of a man, Tony, who 
				plans to murder his wife. Hitch loved for his villains to be 
				well-educated and confident to a fault. It is this hubris, or 
				pure accident, or a wily old detective, that solves the crime. 
				This film, as the mystery starts to unravel, is thrilling to 
				watch. That is, when you are not drawn to the 
				amazing 
				Grace Kelly. She was one of a kind!
