Attorney Anthony Keane agrees to represent Londonite Mrs. Paradine, suspected of her husband's murder. From the start, the married lawyer is drawn to the enigmatic beauty, and he begins to think about ways to exonerate his client. Keane puts a Paradine household servant on the stand, suggesting he is the killer. But Keane’s half-baked plan sets off a stunning chain of events.
« Has almost everything to recommend it: a superb director, Alfred Hitchcock; an impressive cast, a typical expensive and authentic production by David O. Selznick and an exciting story. » (Boston Globe)
« More than just an excellent example of Hitchcock's craftsmanship, The Paradine Case is an intriguing stew of subverted desire and the denial of satisfaction, and remains one of the auteur's most subtly perverse offerings. » (Ion Cinema)
