Alfred Hitchcock’s 1935 Spy Thriller Is Officially Streaming for Free

While it’s widely understood that Alfred Hitchcock hit his creative stride in the 1950s — this was when he made classics such as Vertigo, Rear Window, and North by Northwest — he had cultivated a robust career decades earlier. This was before his move to Hollywood, when he was still making British movies. Hitchcock’s career began in the silent era, and not many of his early films have survived. However, one of his classic British movies from the 1930s is now streaming for free on a brand-new platform. It joins The Lady Vanishes, another classic from that era, which has inspired everything from Jodie Foster’s Flightplan to the Netflix movie Fractured.
