    One thing is for sure, the writers of anthology series of the late 50's and early 60's were amazing, They had a keen insight into the human condition and all its failings. Today's writers can do nothing but recycle endlessly the same old crap . I doubt today's writers could even get the skills set back, as the concepts are so foreign to them . . .. What a shame.

    I think it is strange that the comments under this video seem to blame Wolf for his mental illness. Wolf did not choose to go insane. Neither is he a bad man because he is insane.
    The real villain of this movie is Wolf's brother, who willingly kept Wolf away from anyone who might have been able to help him, in the pursuit of financial benefit.

      Still not sure if your kind of place is y kind of place for that thing. lol As a slightly aging USA Polock, I do agree that sex has been used (progressive, started with the 60 hippy counter culture), to create dysfunction in a society. Great minds that could have created great things with free enterprise have massively been sabotaged and sacrificed. For a real life example, I have a slightly older brother with a 145 IQ, who was sharper than Bill Gates, (and worked for him early, but 10 years younger), who could have competed with the limes of Bill Gates, created a fantastic company hiring hundreds or thousands of employees, (how mankind got out of poverty), getting them out of poverty and giving them opportunity just like gated gave my brother. But what happened is he discovered he was Gay in late 70's HS, he did get rich working for Gates, but he became a gay political activist instead. What a waste of mind! How "Progressive!" How do we measure those losses? Really, how do we measure those losses?

    Never heard of Kraft theatre before and only was randomly suggested this. Although I will seek out more of these now, I do agree with a lot of comments, Tippi Hedren cannot act, is more wooden than the table she sat at, the storyline didn't make much sense. How any people can strike up such as close relationship as the two leads within only a few hours of meeting is ridiculous also. Plus the cat scene was very unpleasant and a ridiculous idea of a distraction.

      Probably no change left after buying the appartment, many expensive houses have big older cars with private plates so they look rich without spending and wasting money on new cars they don't need.

      Wellll, if we're going to start picking, Gerard wouldn't have heard the train record from the elevator or even the terrace -- ditto Miss W. reading to Hastings, the elevator to "penthouse" opens onto the terrace. I don't think the cat would have logistically made a very good decoy, and when Wilton and his thugs showed up at the penthouse (opening its door wide no less) the 3 people in the living room would have seen them a lot sooner.
      That's simply how acted things are, from the greatest movie to the lowliest soap episode -- even operas. But The Trains of Silence is still a damn good show and I'm watching it repeatedly, seeing something new each time.

    Thanks GR. Glad I watched, but at the same time won't be one of my favorites. Does have a bit of intrigue, as to what is really going on. Jeffrey Hunter was a good looking man. Know I've seen him in other roles hopefully that were better, but no memory of anything that stuck in the memory bank. Tippy was a pretty woman, yet I've never cared for her acting. Hitchcock must have been in love with her looks.

    I think Jeff Hunter was offered about 16 drinks in this epi. I agree with everyone here; no one of my faves either.
    Tippi Hedren was pretty/ perfect figure and I'm sure a nice lady. But her acting was always very stiff with no expression in her dialogue nor any emotion in her face/or body movements. She had the very same expression if she laughed or cried.

    • @SM-gl8yo
      @SM-gl8yo 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Miss Hedren was first rate as usual and well cast in this episode.
      The role required a woman of mystery and Miss Hedren delivered.

    Jeff Hunter,a fabulous star,not a method actor,but he had a great style,very busy star,always in movies and TV shows,interesting that his wife controlled what he would do and negotiated his fees,would he of been a affective lead for Star Trek, if his wife hadn't made exorbitant demands to the producers ,he would of been the lead,yes he would of been good,but no were near as effective as Shatner,interesting to speculate,

      She was loaned out I think and then she did get Hitchcock to release her from a 7 year contract. She had served about 4 years of it maybe less. Fact is though who would take such a filthy role in `The Countess from Hong Kong`. Here was the Golden Girl whom hitchcock had spent millions top create. She takes a cheap shoddy role as the wife of the American ambassador, Chaplin`s mouthpiece for all he hated about America. She says `If you can`t make love, make money`. Hitchcock parodies this in `Frenzy` when Blaney says of Barbara, `She can`t make love so she sells it and she makes money`.
