The Flight Of The Phoenix (1965)

The Farmer’s Wife (1928)
Read more: The Farmer’s Wife (1928)2 Hours 9 minutes Fair Value of The Farmer and His Wife: $0.00. In this early (1928) silent film, a young Hitchcock is both out of his element (mystery) and his medium (dialogue), and so this early drama is generic and basic, largely lacking in Hitchcock’s style. This is a snoozer. Summary of the Concept:…
