Jimmy Cliff Posted December 2, 2018 Posted December 2, 2018 Might just be the GOAT paranoid thriller. This was remade in Hindi as "Shanghai" but this is waaaaay better.

zen Posted December 6, 2018 Author Posted December 6, 2018 (edited) Many folks do not watch old films as the films suffer from bad quality prints which makes the viewing experience not optimal. Therefore, I would recommend watching restored version by companies such as Criterion. Many of the blue rays are re-mastered in 2k-4k, giving new life to the movies. Many of the presentations look stunning as illustrated below: Edited November 24, 2021 by zen

I think Foreign Correspondent is a bit too propagandistic and the plot feels far-fetched. But masterful direction from Hitch as always.

A pity that it's become very hard to find the original St. Trinians movies from the 1950s - I enjoyed them much more than the crappy modern remakes. Under_Score 1

zen Posted December 12, 2018 Author Posted December 12, 2018 The Innocents .... it does create a scary atmosphere esp for the well being of the key characters
