Review of Strangers on a Train (1951) by Gavin W — 01 Oct 2011
For just plain real-world, everyday scary, this Hitchcock is hard to beat. There really are psychopaths like Bruno Anthony running around out there, so beware of running into one of them. Robert Walker plays well about as whacked out a nutcase as you could hope not to find.
I love what Rob Reiner did with the old "criss-cross" motif in Throw Momma from the Train. Just saw this again. Really too bad that Walker passed away so young. Now days, 32 years old seems like a just a kid to me.
