Brian_Cote-1 This little masterpiece puts chills down my spine a corrupt Brandon a perfectionist with a sick sense of humor that seems to want to get caught because he stuffed his friend into a chest and then invites over that mans whole family and friends in this unnerving little flick but his partner in crime gets jittery to the whole event and these little rascals reap what they sow through careful collective trail finding through one of the more keen guests its a real ride of tension and hate for this sick rich slob of a man that just has to ruin anything good of wanting food or wine to his uncouth dinner party. A must watch and an Alfred Hitchcock masterpiece enjoy ROPE~! 9 out of 10 forks the beast say here Yes oh yes THE BEAST APPROVES!
Kirpianuscus To say about a Hitchcock film it is impessive represents normal thing. but "Rope" is more than impressive. impecable performances, clouds of words, tension, an admirable James Steward and the great work of John Dall and Farley Granger. more than a remarkable film, it is a chess game. and this does it a perfect social and psychological fresco. because its subject is simple and large, a puzzle from love, Nietzsche/ Raskolnikov an basic values of humanity. a film like a warning, after 70 years more significant . because it gives, in the soliloquy of Rupert, the precise map of our society.
keren-2 Rope - what can I say about this film? It is perfect in many ways and even though it was filmed many years ago, it is still very impressive and interesting as if it was shot today. Full of suspense, philosophical, touching, very human and very smart. The actors are superb!!! the camera work - genius. A very tasty candy for film lovers.don't miss this masterpiece.
redno44 The film covers controversial issues of its time from homosexuality to Übermensch. Also to some extent I think it has some references from Macbeth. It is the first film without a visible "cut". They hid the cuts by moving camera from dark points of interior. Also the view from windows was not real. But Hitchcock made a great job as the time passes the view also changed accordingly. One last thing if you think of the movement of the camera it is like a rope.
