Brief Synopsis:
My latest Hitchcock "micro-edit" -- while there's two widely available cuts of Strangers on a Train, the early preview edition (erroneously called the "British cut") and the theatrical edition (the "Hollywood cut"), neither reflected Hitchcock's preferred choice for the ending, which would end with the line "a very clever fellow" instead of the Warner Bros-demanded coda with the supporting characters. I've used the theatrical cut as the basis to restore Hitch's preferred ending.
Intention:
To end the film on an ominous, dark note as was Hitchcock's preference rather than a comedic/romantic one.
Release Information:
Digital
Cuts and Additions:
A simple fade to the "The End" card, as per Hitchcock's comments.
