ICFS and Union College Film Studies present: Shadow of a Doubt (1943)

Part of the “HITCHCOCK: THE DARK SIDE OF GENIUS” series.
In Hitchcock’s first indisputable masterpiece, a teenage girl (Teresa Wright, “Best Years of Our Lives”) is overjoyed when the uncle she was named after (Joseph Cotton, “Citizen Kane”) comes to visit. As secrets about him come to the fore, however, she increasingly comes to suspect he might be the “Merry Widow Murderer” currently sought by authorities. A young Hume Cronyn (“Cocoon”) co-stars in his very first film, and Thornton Wilder contributed to the screenplay!
Michael Oatman (Associate Professor of Architecture, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute) will introduce the film and lead a post-screening Q&A. Not rated. 108 minutes.
