Review of I Confess (1953) by Adam T — 17 May 2017
I Confess, like some Hitchcock movies, has a concept that is more intriguing than its execution. The casting is good with talented heartthrob Montgomery Clift delivering a fine performance as a priest who becomes a key witness in a murder by association- that is to say that he cannot break the holy code of confidentiality in the confession box.
The story doesn't seem as compelling and thrilling as it should be and although it is certainly a solid film, Hitch had some magic to come when he made a more decisive switch to technicolour with Dial M For Murder.
