Title: Hitchcock dumped on
Review: Do not spend your money on this supposedly superior edition of this great, classic Hitch flick on Criterion. For the price they are asking, better care should have been spent on the sound quality of one of the early masterpieces of the master of suspense. The sound is exactly the same as on my VHS version, varying between extreme shrill and loud sound and soft, incomprehensible sound. If the original sound source is so bad that no doctoring up will help, then at least have titles or Closed captioning to help us out. Picture quality is good and the only thing that saves this from receiving no stars. How can we enjoy a mystery if half the dialogue is unheard? Criterion has let us all down and has dumped on Hitch. They have not served him or us well. Save your money!
