That’s the Hitchcock method. It’s what Hitch wanted. Remember, back then Hitchcock was a trailblazing pioneer of suspense in film. 60 years later, it’s been done to death so we see it as predictable and over acting.
I like this format. I have a short attention span & always appreciate the "Executive Summary." Loved the "door" transition at about 8:30. RIP Hitch, Walter... and Betty Field, the wanted kid Jim Ringerman's mother in "Coogan's Bluff." "Mothahood!"
Kut: Yes the 'door' was good, people should try to remember that although we see this kind of thing all the time now, this was back in the 60s and Hitchcock was New, Innovative and Bold . . .

📌Betty Field was married three times and had three children by her first husband Elmer Rice, who was a playwright. Her son became a lawyer and died at the age of 40 due to a swimming accident. Mrs. Field unfortunately passed away at the untimely age of 57 whilst other sources claims that she was 55 years of age. The cause of her death was cerebral hemorrhage on September 13/1973.🕊️🌹
If I could have been given a choice in life I would have loved to meet Walter Matthau, Jack Lemon and Debbie Reynolds. Those were 3 of my favorite actors. I think I have seen every movie those 3 were in.
I met Debbie Reynolds...for about three hours we shared an evening in Los Vegas. Food.....drinks...conversation. She was well...complex. Sometimes it's best to keep those people you admire the most .... at a distance.
"Keep your shirt on will ya" always turns up in these old shows. I guess in the old days guys were in the habit of pulling off their shirts when really pissed. 😁
@Ed Miller Ed, three points: 1. I didn't use an emoji. Are you high on something? 2. It's a perversely narrow mind that thinks emojis shouldn't be used by adults or males. 3. I notice that since you had no defense, you tried draw attention away from the criticism against you by throwing lame insults. "Hey, everybody--don't notice what a dick I am! Instead look at how stupid I can make that guy look!" Lame, lame, lame.

Frances Gillotti she got involved with a con man. When he saw how broken she was when he let her down, he conned a couple of mobsters to get the money for her. He knew he was risking - maybe even knew he was sacrificing - his life to get the $8K, but he did it because he genuinely had feelings for her. The barkeep denied any knowledge of Harry because he didn’t want to be connected in any way to someone the Mob had killed.
She (Betty Field) played the over concerned mother in Picnic with William Holden & Kim Novak (1955). The lovely song Moonglow was featured in that movie. She was also in the Peyton Place movie, too.
I like these half-episodes. They seem like full short stories and I can watch 4 or 5 in one night instead of 1. We all halve limited time to live. The more we can experience, the better.
Watched this the other night. Definitely noir. But tell me "Hitchcock Presents" TH-cam channel, why can't you tell us the names of the actors?

For hell's sake people! Once again, from the start of the damn series, 1955 to 1962 the show was called "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" and each story was this length, none of these were cut. Pad on commercial time and his episode specific monologue and epilogue and that's each episode. From 1962 on the episodes were longer and the show was rebranded "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour".
@@pippishortstocking7913, you are absolutely wrong! These shows on YT are approximately 10-minute clips of the original "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" episodes. Do your research. The reason they are cut is to get around copyright laws. All that's shown here is the gist of each story - not the complete episode. No one is confusing "Presents" with "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour."
Maybe women desperate for marriage was a plot for several years after the second world war. Two huge engagements, the two world wars, took many able- bodied marriage age men out of the usa population. Almost every male in my family for three generations served in the USA military. I am here because my maternal grandfather and father were able to come back in one piece. My grandfather died a few years after fathering my mother. He was gassed in Belgium. He was a very talented artist. Then my mom grew up and married a guy who survived the Korean war with no serious scrapes. My two sisters and I are all baby boomers. Two husbands of three served in or during viet nam. The third guy was nowhere near service health level. anyway, just speculation on why this plot line occurs often in Hitchcock from decades ago. I don't know what the percentage of active duty military is with American males in the 20th century, but it has to be very high, because we have had huge numbers of vets for my entire lifetime ( born late 1958) and long before. American veteran services are large organizations, and we have had so many vets for so long that we have only recently started to better meet their many needs if injured seriously. Also, not being married and just living together was definitely not as acceptable as it is now. It has become the rule not the exception

Bottom line, the story comes up short the way it was edited.
@@Finians_Mancave The reason that the barman "did not see" Helen with Harry is to protect her. Otherwise the mob would try to retrieve the money or kill her.

I love everything Walter Matthau has ever done. He was one of the great ones. So funny and giving via his craft.
Walter Matthau was an underrated actor, and he could play different types easily - thugs, suave playboys, grumpy old men, intellectuals.
Even a leading man, like Charlie Varrick. And that guy with the whip (I forget the movie's name).
Loved him in Pelham 123.
Underrated?
Everybody knows Walter Matthau. I wouldn’t say he was underrated.
@@totallyfrozen *I absolutely agree with you Frozen. He is an icon!*
Was never underrated.
Those were the old programs, still favorites for some who appreciate them!!!!

he didn't love her, he just felt bad.
He was a fool and met a fool’s end.
A month after he was in Boot Hill, she
was glad to be rid of him.
'dating the bank Prez , now.
Happiest Hitchcock ending ever 😂
Portraying a " Real Man's Man "-!!!😉
Hmmmm. I never noticed until now how much attention Matthau can generate by his voice and manner . . .
QED right and his nose!
He’s always been good. I loved to see him teamed up with Jack Lemmon!
He was suave,good actor,poised......but when he got old he turned into a .....FART!.........
Could her facial expressions make it more obvious she is doing something wrong?
Overkill, I'd say.
