A potentially powerful subject but, given that it’s made by Hitchcock, it is unusually mediocre. It is not bad in any way, but it is also not exceptional in any respect. All the classic Master's techniques are here, the good actors are too, and there are also thrilling scenes - the trial was especially successful. But overall, especially at the beginning of the movie, there is a slow pace and too little tension. This is rather a mediocre item of Hitchcock's filmography, albeit still of sufficiently high quality.

Everything is fine, I didn't notice any long-winded beginning or delaying flashbacks. Montgomery Clift is at his best, and so is Gregory Peck, he's utterly convincing. The story gradually gets muddied and I really didn't dare to guess how it would turn out.
