Bon Voyage (1944)
4/10
Forgettable Hitchcock short film
16 July 2015
Warning: Spoilers
This is an Alfred Hitchcock short film from over 70 years ago and it is actually not one of the director's early works, but he has already enjoyed a pretty prolific career at that point. Still, the films which were considered widely his finest efforts followed later, but "Rebecca" for example was already made back then. It's a black-and-white film that runs for 26 minutes and is mostly a little spy drama, maybe even thriller. There are (cold) war references and this fit in nicely there because obviously, back in 1944, World War II was still going on. However, in terms of the action I have to say I was not particularly well-entertained. And that is also why I cannot recommend it. One final note: The film is in French, so make sure you get subtitles if you want to watch it and don't speak the language.
