Description: It's a situation familiar to us all: You're in love with an attractive sleazeball, and you can't tell if your paramour is evil to the core and to be feared, or basically a good person. Will love cloud your judgment? The authors argue that Hitchcock builds suspense with this scenario, and that his characters must be rational, astute, and committed to the truth in order to prevail. Happy Halloween!
