Does anybody agree with me that #12 might not fit the topic? After all, the central element is espionage.

I was thinking, though, that the central element in Notorious draws other criminal elements into it. But I might as well leave that one alone as well. |

I cannot think of any spies in any Hitchcock films who are not criminals. |

Can I ask you to post absolutely anything you please as the final entry and I will have no objections. -Llanwydd |

But I’ll finish it up as you requested. |
