Torn Curtain

Torn Curtain is a 1966 thriller film directed by Alfred Hitchcock, featuring his trademark characters and camera techniques. The film was written by Brian Moore, and rated PG when it was released to theaters on July 14 of 1966. The film caused some controversy for its racy scenes featuring star Julie Andrews, who had recently made several successful Disney family films. Hithcock often complained that Andrews was "recommended" to him rather than being his real choice. However, it was a minor hit for Alfred Hitchcock and an honorable effort, though rarely considered a Hitchcock classic. It does feature a memorable murder scene that Hithcock made specifically to show the audience just how difficult it actually is to kill a man.

Against all the evidence, Michael,

:03:46

I'd say you had a very unscientific mind.

:03:48

I'm not a scientist, I'm a teacher.

:03:51

You're a scientist,

:03:52

and you're supposed to respect
a natural order in all things.

Breakfast comes before lunch. Ow!

Mm.

And marriage should come
