Movie Haiku:Perverse Hitchcock masterpiece in which Jimmy Stewart becomes obsessed with one blond, loses her, & tries to remake a new blond in the image of the first blond. Unquestionably Hitchcock’s most personal film, with a fabulous score by Bernard Hermann. Most men love it, but women may get queasy.
