Alfred Hitchcock’s first talkie and one of the most celebrated British films of the era!
After killing a man in self-defense, Alice (Anny Ondra) is blackmailed by a witness to the killing, complicated by her relationship with the investigator, Frank (John Longden). (Rialto Pictures)
“Blackmail marked Hitchcock’s first use of sound, and it remains famous for its innovations in that area. But it’s now more stimulating for its experiment with narrative structure.” – Time Out London
