 Undoubtedly
one of Hitchcock's finest films, "Strangers on a Train"
transforms a highly improbable situation into a series of logical
events which inexorably lead to murder. A psychopathic man plans
what he thinks is an "exchange murder" with a stranger
he meets on a train. Academy Award Nominations: Best (Black-and-White)
Cinematography. British version of film runs almost two minutes
longer, has a different ending and different dialogue in the
first scene where Granger and Walker meet.
