    Repeated viewings can't dispel the shock of the final scene of Suspicion, Hitchcock's classic 1941 romantic mystery--a brief but disorientating confrontation that suddenly inverts the heroine's mounting conviction that she's married a murderer, forcing us to reconsider virtually every scene and line of dialogue that's preceded it. It's a masterful coup de grĂ¢ce for the director, who has built a puzzle around the corrosive power of suspicion, threaded with deft ambiguities that toy with dramatic conventions and character archetypes in nearly every frame. As embodied by Joan Fontaine, who nabbed an Oscar in this second outing with the director, Lina McLaidlaw is a buttoned-up, bookish heiress whose prim exterior conceals longings for a more engaged emotional life. Her solution materialises in the darkly handsome Johnnie Aysgarth, a gambler, womaniser and spendthrift who flirts, then pursues, and soon marries her. As Aysgarth, Cary Grant is both irresistible and sinister, capable of deceit and petty theft, as well as grander designs on his bride's impending fortune. Lina's passion for Johnnie is clouded by each new revelation about his apparent dishonesty, from clandestine gambling to real-estate development schemes; more troubling are clues implicating him in the death of his best friend, and the prospect that Johnnie may be slowly poisoning Lina herself. By the time we see him ascending a darkened staircase with a suspicious glass of milk, an image made all the more indelible through the spectral glow the director captures in the glass, the evidence seems damning indeed. In fact, even as Hitchcock stacks the deck against Johnnie, and takes full advantage of Grant's skill at conveying such menace, the director also dots his landscape with visual clues to Lina's own neurotic (and erotic) obsessions. The final scene forces us to re-evaluate her behaviour while leaving enough of a cloud over Johnnie to rob him, and us, of a complete exoneration. It's a wicked, unsettling payoff to a brilliantly executed thriller. --Sam Sutherland

    Howard Hughes' bawdy comedy caper about two inept airmen sent to earn their wings on the Western Front. Wisecracking idlers Wilkie (Spencer Tracy) and Mitchell (George Cooper) fail to dodge the draft as World War I intensifies in Europe, and are put to work shoveling manure at a US Army base. Their attempt at desertion backfires as they stow away on a troop ship carrying Air Corps pilots to France, and they blunder into war. Through constant run-ins with stern taskmaster Sergeant Hogan (William Boyd) and lewd flirtations with leggy troop entertainer Mary Way (Ann Dvorak), the two boys drift from one fix to the next. But when they unwittingly cause the destruction of a major German munitions depot, Wilkie and Mitchell are hailed as heroes. What could possibly go wrong as they fly home in triumph? Howard Hughes produced and A. Edward Sutherland (Laurel and Hardy's The Flying Deuces) directed this racy pre-Code romp about love, survival and chicanery amid the bloodiness of battle.
