Before anyone joked about “throwing Momma from the train,” Alfred Hitchcock had already pioneered the perfect murder “crisscross” in Strangers on a Train. When tennis star Guy Haines (Farley Granger) casually vents about wanting his wife gone, he catches the attention of charming but unhinged playboy Bruno Anthony (Robert Walker), who wishes the same fate for his father. Bruno proposes a clean exchange—each kills the other’s problem, leaving no motive and no clues. Guy dismisses it as a twisted joke… until Bruno carries out his half of the plan. With its escalating tension, macabre humor, and standout performances from Ruth Roman, Leo G. Carroll, and Patricia Hitchcock, this iconic thriller remains one of Hitchcock’s most unforgettable and unsettling rides. Introduction by Artistic Director, Dan Friedman.
