Hitchcock Thursday: Dial M for Murder

Another great Hitchcock movie.  Probably my favorite so far this year.  Saw this classic for the first time last night with my good friend, Casey.  Simple yet freaking good considering it's from the 1950's.  The ending was classy.  As a big fan of the Coen Brothers, I couldn't help but wonder if they were heavily influenced by this film.  Especially in their films, Blood Simple and Intolerable Cruelty.
Similar plot.
I would recommend this to those fans of classic cinema.  It has a little bit of suspense but it's pretty much a straightforward murder plot that goes wrong.  Next Hitchcock Thursday in May will be To Catch A Thief.
Dial M for M&M's.
