The 39 Steps

Thurday, July 24, 2008

Okay, I've seen this one before, but not in a few years, so I'm counting it for my K2K. It brings me back to a point I made before... this movie is not a comedy, per se, yet the humor in it amuses me way more than many actual comedies of the era. Was Hitchcock ahead of his time? His style and humor didn't seem to change too drastically over his career, the humor in his later pictures isn't much different, and it tends to hold up. What was it about his movies that tickles my funny bone more than actual comedies of the time?
