A comment mentioned that the climax of the movie was underwhelming. I felt that the ending was satisfying because Rusk was caught red-handed. Since I was in the mood to imagine an alternate ending, this is what I replied. I thought I'd share it with everyone 😂👇🏻 Blaney walks in on Rusk strangling the girl. They both get into a fight that destroys the room. In the process, Blaney accidentally kills the girl with the pipe. As he stood frozen in shock at what he's done, Rusk escapes. Blaney soon gives chase, with chief inspector Tim Oxford hot on their heels. They run through the fog-wreathed streets of London, passing by some hansom cabs. Rusk pushes aside a ripped wh*re blocking his way. The chase ends up at the river, where they fight it out. Rusk gains the upper hand and starts strangling Blaney. Oxford comes to the rescue just in the nick of time (he ran a bit slow because he's hungry. Didn't have much of a dinner, you know). Oxford pushes Rusk away from Blaney. Rusk slips, hits his head, and falls into the river. The next morning, police find Rusk's body floating face down in the river (at the same spot they found the woman at the beginning of the movie). How's that for an alternate ending? 😂
Brilliant!!!!!!! It comes full circle! That WOULD be a great ending! I do like the way this movie ends.....like a play. A play would end with a line like that. It's a great last line! But your script would have been a great ending as well! I can totally see it in my mind!
I love the slow tracking shot down the stairway and out into the street after Babs enters Rusk’s flat and he says, “you’re my type of woman.” Chilling…
@@gggooding cool, I haven’t watched the whole movie in awhile, I’ll have to examine the scene more carefully next time. I just remember how effective it was, though completely understated in contrast to the intensely graphic first rape/murder scene. That slow tracking shot(s) said it all; no violence needed.
Oh good! Can’t wait to watch your reaction. Glad you’re doing ones that most reactors ignore. This one is gruesome and very funny at the same time haha
Actress Jean Marsh (Monica) is best known for playing Rose on British TV's Upstairs, Downstairs (1971 - 1975). The latter ran on American PBS as well and was a big hit, being sort of a precursor to Downton Abbey.
Wow! That's really cool! I loved Drive-Ins too. I remember seeing "Sleeper" in a drive-in, and "Silent Runnings", those are my two earliest movie memories, I would have been four or five. (I saw "American Graffiti" around the same time, but at a regular movie theatre. Blew my little mind 10,000 times more than "Star Wars" ever did!) And I saw lots and lots of other movies subsequently at drive-ins. Didn't see "Frenzy" though! That's a perfect drive-in film!!!
If you know Hitchcock, then you know that Blaney can't be the killer. He's too coarse and angry to be a Hitchcock villain. Hitchcock always said the villain has to be likeable and charming, like Brandon in Rope, to get close enough to make murder happen. And he might be a flashy dresser, too, like Bruno in Strangers on a Train, or Mr Rusk, here.
Three Hitchcocks in one day? Wow! That's a lot of exposition to get through in one day! :D Great job! I loved the last two you did and I have no doubt this will be just as terrific.
At the beginning of the movie, Rusk said to Blaney: "Why don't you go and have a chat with your ex? She's doin' alright, isn't she?" "And she's prettier than you." (Talking about Barbara) This sounds like a casual conversation, but it shows that Rusk has his eyes on the two ladies.
I'm glad you're reacting to this one. It's where Hitchcock was finally allowed to grow up. When this was made fingerprinting was common, but all they could do with blood was type it. That allowed some exclusion of suspects. The first serial killer caught by using DNA was in 1983 in a small town in England. It was also the first time the local male population were voluntary tested. It was so new the objections about privacy and future use didn't really come up.
Highly underrated film. Billie Whitelaw (Hetty) played the evil nurse in The Oman (1976). Shadow of a Doubt is a great film. Hitch had at least one Comedy, Mr. and Mrs. Smith which was later redone about 20-25 years ago.
A few little pieces of trivia... 1) Frenzy inspired real life serial killer Jeremy Rifkin to commit his crimes. 2) The actor who portrayed the killer, Barry Foster, plays German Kaiser Wilhelm II in one of my favorite historical series, The Fall of Eagles (also starring Patrick Stewart and John Rhys-Davies). 3) Since you maentioned the Hays Code ending, I'd like to suggest you watch The Scarlet Empress (1934) starring Marlene Dietrich, the last movie released before the code. It is one of the most grotesquely beautifuly shot black and white films ever. 4) If you are continuing on the Hitchcock train, Lifeboat is one of his earlier films and quite unique.
Never heard of Rifkin before, so I googled it. I think you meant Joel Rifkin. An article did mention that he was obsessed with Frenzy's strangulation scenes (in a sexual way). I'll note down The Fall of Eagles and add The Scarlet Empress to my list. Thanks for your suggestion 😊 I plan to do one final Hitchcock run on TH-cam, which will include Lifeboat 😉
Topaz is an overlooked Hitchcock film, as well as Family Plot which was his last film. I remember when I watched Topaz for the first time I thought that it was the one Hitchcock movie that was the most relevant, at least for the late 80s early 90s. It has a lot of moving parts to it, you need to pay attention. It's a Cold War spy movie. But quite different from Torn Curtain.
Tremendous film and reaction. Hitchcock's return to England after 32 years of filming in Hollywood. Dark British humour abounds. There are so many brilliant cinematic elements most notably the upward tracking of Rusk and Babs going up the stairs to Rusk's apartment, their going in, then the camera tracking backwards down the stairs and out into the street to see normal life person's along the sidewalk. Hitchcock had the best trailers for his films too. Here's Frenzy's: th-cam.com/video/0gWjZpkkkIs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=chxrkKtygIQRXZFZ
This was a great reaction this movie! Great post-film remarks! One of my favorite reactions you've done! I really felt how infuriated you were (and I relate!). And I was laughing right along with you during all the scenes with the wife. I had actually forgotten about those scenes! You've seen many Hitchcock villains, but watching this reaction made me think that perhaps this was his most repulsive. I hate that guy! What a day you had with Alfred Hitchcock! Three in a day! Very impressive! Sounds super fun! PS 3:46 - Loved your British accent!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! 😊 You're right. Out of all the Hitchcock movies I've watched, this movie makes me look forward to seeing the villain get caught (or suffer a worse fate).
"You're my type of woman." Fun Fact: Theatrical movie debut of Barbara Leigh-Hunt. That's Hot Fact: When Barry Foster pulled down Barbara Leigh-Hunt's top, revealing her breasts, a body double is used. Casting Notes Fact: The last murder victim was played by Susan Travers, the daughter of Linden Travers, who played Mrs. Todhunter in Sir Alfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes (1938). Authentic Battle Damage Fact: On the first day of filming in London, Sir Alfred Hitchcock fell down in his hotel room and injured his back. Filming was delayed a few hours because of this. Last Masterpiece Fact: Penultimate movie of Sir Alfred Hitchcock. It was his fifty-second. The tag line for this movie was "Hitchcock's Last Masterpiece!" and this is now considered to be the last masterwork Sir Alfred Hitchcock produced in his canon.
Fingerprints were first used as evidence by a British court in 1901, so they did have fingerprints. They didn't have DNA fingerprinting though, you're right there. It would be another 12 years before that was even invented.
I’ve never heard of this movie or seen it so I can’t watch your reaction. I’ll Like it anyway of course! Request: “The Eyes of Laura Mars” thriller murder mystery 1978. You’ll like it for sure. Maybe even love it! lol. Faye Dunaway was an A- list star. Young, handsome Tommy Lee Jones. Also please react to Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty in the blockbuster hit “Bonnie and Clyde.”
Although this was Hitchcock's penultimate film, I tend to think of it as his last. I think what I really mean is that it was the last film Hitchcock made that was quintessentially Hitchcock. I always personally found the climax underwhelming. Not sure what I was expecting, an out-of-control carousel perhaps? If the police simply caught Bruno before he jumped on the carousel and found the lighter in his hand, Strangers on a Train would have have had just as underwhelming a climax.
You mean like Blaney walking in on Rusk strangling the girl? Then they both get into a fight that destroys the room. In the process, Blaney accidentally kills the girl with the pipe. As he stood frozen in shock at what he's done, Rusk escapes. Blaney soon gives chase, with chief inspector Tim Oxford hot on their heels. They run through the fog-wreathed streets of London, passing by some hansom cabs. Rusk pushes aside a ripped wh*re blocking his way. The chase ends up at the river, where they fight it out. Rusk gains the upper hand and starts strangling Blaney. Oxford comes to the rescue just in the nick of time (he ran a bit slow because he's hungry. Didn't have much of a dinner, you know). Oxford pushes Rusk away from Blaney. Rusk slips, hits his head, and falls into the river. The next morning, police find Rusk's body floating face down in the river (at the same spot they found the woman at the beginning of the movie). How's that for an alternate ending? 😂
@@henryellow Oh yeah. Something like that would have been great. Just showing up and saying, 'You appear to be missing your tie,' does wrap the story up of course but it could have been much more exciting, as you have demonstrated.
Most in the larger American grocery chains (which is all I know about) either don't, or they're so small as to seem insignificant. Labelled as "seedless". But, yes, there are plenty of seeded green grape varieties. Often not sold fresh, but as either juice, added to the juice of a bitter fruit to make it more palatable. Or as an ingredient in some other commercial recipe. I imagine they are used in _commercial_ wine, too, but I'm not knowlegable about that. Seeded green grapes also notably exist as heirloom vine varietals for food or ornamental (generally the latter) garden plants for home use. Regarding homemade wines, though, I have this experience: a childhood friend's father came from Italy, and made red and white wine in his basement, for his family and friends, not commercially. His wine was from 55-gallon barrels of already partly fermented grapes, vines, seeds, even a few leaves. The stuff from the white grapes tasted like white wine blended with kerosene, and would actually give you a slightly numbed sensation. Basically fortified "bathtub" wine, though he's funnelled the stuff into barrells to fully ferment. His equipment was all from Italy, too (oak barrels, a 150-year-old press he called the "torture", and spigots). The press worked with a staff twelve feet long of which one end fit into a hole in a disc that, when we kids marched round it, pushing the staff, would work a cam that progressed the weight of the press downward over the grape mast only about a milimeter at a time, slowly squeezing out what they called "spring wine", which really was delicious, but you weren't supposed to drink it, yet. Round about this press was an old barrell with one-eighth-inch gaps between each stave (for the juice to slip through), and a circular trough below that (about 3 inches deep and wide for the nuice to collect in). A spigot attached to an ell-shaped metal tube went through a hole on the floor of the trough, and someone openned the spiget and held a funnel and gallon milk jug under it, and then, when full, would perform the reverse process over a hole in a barrel. Once sealed, there they would sit and age for a year or year and a half. Anyway, they used green(ish) grapes that had seeds, but judging from it's knockout-drop flavor, perhaps my anecdote doesn't represent best practices, and you're supposed to remove the seeds (from green grapes) before making them into wine. Now, that's the short answer. Now, for the long answer... (jk)
I've seen this many times, when he puts up the caption, *Barbra will never be able to travel again* I was thinking, Yes she will, on a Potato truck. 🥸 P.S. actually Rusk planting those clothes was STUPID, by doing that he gave himself away to Blaney, then the detective got wind that the "guilty man" knew who the real murderer was. They were going to arrest Blaney anyway, all he had to to was turn in him.
Well, dang it 😂 you're right. Barbara didn't travel far though, she "stepped off" the truck early. I do agree. Rusk revealed himself to Blaney when he planted the clothes. Perhaps he did it on a whim (I can imagine him feeling smug about it too). I'm sure he was confident no one would believe Blaney's words. Thankfully, detective Oxford continued investigating (even though all evidence points to Blaney).

"Mr Rusk.....you're not wearing your tie."
One of my favorite lines in all of cinema.
For me, this is perhaps my favourite Hitchcock movie. Thanks for having a look at it, I think it is a much underrated movie.
Fact Check: Not underrated. However it was his last masterpiece.
Go in Peace and Walk with God. 😎 👍
Yes, this is also one of my faves. Have you seen Jon Finch in Polanski's Macbeth? Another favorite.
@@BigGator5 Well, a lot of people have said it's lesser Hitchcock, so underrated might be a fair assessment.
I love the slow tracking shot down the stairway and out into the street after Babs enters Rusk’s flat and he says, “you’re my type of woman.” Chilling…
It's one of my favorite shots in a movie, ever! (If you look closely its actually 2 shots.)
Martin Scorsese, (a fan of Hitchcock), used the exact same technique at the end of Taxi Driver, (1976).
@@gggooding cool, I haven’t watched the whole movie in awhile, I’ll have to examine the scene more carefully next time.

I can't believe you're reacting to this! Man, I love Hitchcock and this is one of my faves!
One of Hitchcock's classic crane shots. This one leaves the audience feeling helpless.
Oh good! Can’t wait to watch your reaction. Glad you’re doing ones that most reactors ignore. This one is gruesome and very funny at the same time haha
So pleased you reacted to this classic, everyone else seems to overlook it. My second favourite Hitchcock film after 'Psycho'.

We saw this at the drive-in. I miss drive-ins.
Wow! That's really cool! I loved Drive-Ins too. I remember seeing "Sleeper" in a drive-in, and "Silent Runnings", those are my two earliest movie memories, I would have been four or five.

This is my favourite Hitchcock, and my favourite scene is the hilarious scene in the potato lorry😂😂
So glad you reacted to this.
My favorite Hitchcock film.
I like how none of the actors were well known. It makes it more realistic.

Marnie is very overlooked.
Yes, he did a good reaction to that one, but I haven't noticed many on here.
One of Hitchcock's Very Best, hugely underrated

Right. If DNA technology was more advanced, then Rusk would have to be even more careful with his murders.
