Strangers on a Train

Thursday, January 6, 2022, 7:30 p.m., Dryden Theatre

(Alfred Hitchcock, US 1951, 101 min., 35mm)

Resolution #2: Make new friends. Fast-talking, seductive Robert Walker makes killing sound as easy as criss-cross in this classic Hitchcock thriller. Walker proposes that he “swap murders” with random freight companion Farley Granger, a tennis star whose estranged wife is an inconvenient impediment to his remarriage and political aspirations. When Walker unilaterally sets the plan in motion, Granger learns that the path to happiness and normalcy can (or must?) overlap with that of sadism and guilt.
