    Charm meets menace in this psychological thriller starring Cary Grant and Joan Fontaine. A whirlwind romance leads to a shadowy marriage where love is clouded by lies and fear. Fontaine’s Oscar-winning performance anchors a story rich with ambiguity, as Hitchcock invites us to question everything we see—and everything we want to believe. Join us to unpack the film’s unsettling suspense, iconic visuals, and the controversial twist that still sparks debate today, and to understand why "each time they kissed... there was the thrill of love... the threat of murder!"
