After successfully ditching Frank one evening on a date, Alice instead meets up with a young male artist who she really wanted to be with that evening. After going up to the artist's studio apartment, he tries to rape her. She ends up stabbing him to death in self defense, after which, she tries to wipe out any evidence of being in his apartment, followed by sneaking out of the apartment and wandering the streets in a shocked daze over what she did. Frank ends up being one of the detectives assigned to the case, who sees evidence known to him to Alice's in the artist's apartment, and recognizing the dead man as the person with whom Alice went off after she ditched him the night before. Frank decides to remove the evidence he knows implicates Alice from his fellow detectives, but confronts Alice with it to see what she says. But before she answers, an unsavory type named Tracy implies that he knows what happened, and blackmails the pair in return for his silence. Eventually, Frank learns that Tracy is a wanted criminal. So Frank comes up with an idea of pinning the murder on him. The question becomes whether such a move will actually work, and if so, whether Alice's conscience will allow an innocent man, however unsavory, be charged with a crime he didn't commit. Reviews: A hour ago, I just finished watching this movie for the first time ever and it was phenomenal. The fact that Alfred Hitchcock directed the first sound feature British movie is truly astounding. Positives for Blackmail (1929): After watching silent movies for the past three days, it was very refreshing to watch a black-and-white movie with sound. The sound really helped make me viewing experience better and I was way more engaged with the story in this movie. Similar to his other movies, Alfred Hitchcock takes a very simple and straightforward story on paper and he elevates the material with his directing and execution. I really enjoyed the performances from Anny Ondra as Alice White, John Longden as Detective Frank Webber and Donald Calthrop as Tracy in this movie. The tension and suspense in this movie is at an all-time great to where you are on the edge of your seat wondering. And finally, the climax of this movie was very satisfying and while it doesn't give a decisive conclusion to the end, I actually appreciated that because it always the auidence to decide what happens in the end. Overall, Blackmail (1929) is a phenomenal crime thriller movie by Alfred Hitchcock and it's easily the second best movie of his legendary filmography. written by "jared-25331" on IMDb.com ···················································································· ✘ Website: https://www.artflix.info FOLLOW US! ✘ Twitter -   / artflixtv   SUPPORT US! ✘ Membership: https://bit.ly/33nGlVm MORE MOVIES! ► Film Noir: https://bit.ly/3yP7UR2 ► Classic Movies: https://bit.ly/2VhJRN2 ► All Playlists: https://bit.ly/2AsmqTR #classicmovies #filmnoir #colorizedmovies ···················································································· COPYRIGHT: All of the films published by us are legally licensed.
