Dial M For Murder is one of Alfred Hitchcock’s most vivid character explorations, centering around a twisted murder plot.Retired professional tennis pro Tony (Ray Milland) is unhappily married to a beautiful socialite Margot, played by Grace Kelly in her first of many collaborations with the prolific director. After Tony discovers that Margot is having an affair with a handsome American crime writer named Mark Halliday (Robert Cummings), he hatches a sinister plan for the perfect murder, calling upon an old school friend to K*ll the unfaithful Margot for her inheritance. The plot thickens, however, when Margot heroically defends herself from her would-be assassin and only to be framed by Tony for first-degree murder.
Hitchcock's astonishing use of 3-D proved that the process had more potential as an artistic medium than the gimmicky shock value many ascribed to it. Though the film was shot in 3-D, audiences had grown wary of technical difficulties with the new format, so Dial M for Murder was originally released in standard 2-D. Now remastered and restored, this screen version of Frederick Knott's stage hit is suspense at its most stylish — a sophisticated thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final scene.
Seating is limited, so please book early to avoid disappointment. Each guest will receive a pair of 3-D glasses upon arrival!
