The audience doesn't know if Cary Grant's character is really a good guy or an evil schemer until the very last moment. A great tribute to Hitchcock's power as a director. Clear, concise storytelling, not s frame wasted, and superb performances as the two leads carry off their parts to perfection. The basic dynamic has had many copyists since, none as good.
Interesting also from a female perspective is, how male polite charm slid so easily into ordering a woman about and, what was almost as bad, how women in those days put up with it.
