For my short essay, I decided to write about Strangers on a Train, a film directed by Alfred Hitchcock and released in 1951. The story is about two strangers who meet on a train. The names of those men were Guy Haines and Bruno Anthony. Guy is a professional tennis player and is married. His wife's name is Mariam, but he wants a divorce from Mariam because he loves another woman. Bruno Anthony is the other stranger, slightly psychotic, who hates his father and wants to kill him. The film lasts 1 hour and 45 minutes. Now, in this article, I will try to analyze Hitchcock's filming techniques, setting, suspense, shots, character plot and theme of this film. In Strangers on a Train, I think Guy is guilty because he wanted Miriam dead. On the other hand, guilt is the only thing that weakens Bruno. The audience sees, at the senator's house during the party meeting, when Bruno sees Barbara he feels guilty and confused because Barbra looks like Miriam when she wears glasses. In general, both Guy and Bruno oscillate between guilt and innocence, especially Bruno because he did not gain any benefits, because Guy refused to kill Bruno's father, even though he killed Miriam and eventually died too. of the possible homosexuality in Bruno. For example, in his quiet and slightly effeminate way of speaking when he says: “Boy, I can do anything for you. I like you." His nail care and his colorful shoes: all these behaviors would indicate that he is gay. As for Guy, it is really difficult to decide whether he is gay or not. It depends on the interpretation of the public. If we consider his weak relationship with Anna, perhaps we can classify it as gay. On the other hand,...... middle of paper...... includes several themes, stylistic patterns and plot elements characteristic of Hitchcock's style was the most important object in this movie. Overall, Bruno is a very distracting character in this movie and Guy is a very weak person and can't decide anything in his life that Bruno had failed to reach the lighter when he heard himself swearing, but recovered after several time trials. However, after Bruno's death, the police found the lighter in his hand and Guy was not detained guilty In other words, in this film my view of Bruno was the same as Norman in the Hitchcock film Psycho.
