Based on Patricia Highsmith's 1950 novel. A Hitchcock classic, wherein two passengers on a train form a partnership to permanently rid themselves of incessant problems. The plan seems infallible until one person shirks his end of the responsibilities.

Shot on location in New York, Los Angeles, District of Columbia, and Connecticut. Nominated for an Academy Award.

10 x 8 inches. Very Good plus, lightly and evenly toned overall.
