Strangers on a Train (1951)
A charming psychopath tries to coerce a tennis star into his theory that two strangers can commit the perfect crime by exchanging murders—each killing the other’s most-hated person.
🏳️🌈 Alfred Hitchcock's psychological suspense thriller masterfully features an intensely close, homoerotic/queer-coded criminal murder proposition executed by the charismatic Bruno Antony toward Guy Haines.
