		Strangers On A Train, the 1951 fl and white film by Alfred Hitchcock, is a damned good movie- with many of the requisite Hitchcockian flourishes, but it is not a great film, despite many great aspects about it.
		Strangers On A Train is almost a definitive, or archetypal, Hitchcock film in that it has all his film canon's glories and flaws.
		When you watch Strangers On A Train you will wince, chuckle, smile, shake your head, be frustrated and relaxed, and if that is not the sign of a work of art that does more right than wrong, there are always new Hollywood releases to watch and wince to.

		This fear is at the heart of many of his best films, including "Strangers on a Train" (1951), in which a man becomes the obvious suspect in the strangulation of his wife.

	Strangers On A Train - Movie Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Bruno seems innocent enough on the train when we first meet him, wearing a gaudy tie-pin with his name on it and shooting homoerotic glances at Guy Haines (Farley Granger), a world-class tennis player returning home from a match.
		Strangers so deftly covers this ground that it’s easy to forget that this stuff is hard to do: Indeed, Hitchcock had been making five years of clunkers before it, and he’d make a pair of clunkers afterward before Rear Window redeemed him again.
		The Strangers DVD is a true collector's item, a two-disc set that includes the theatrical version of the film and a preview version, uncovered in 1991 (it's not terribly different, but it has a few little touches that make it two minutes longer).

	The DVD Journal \| Reviews : Strangers on a Train: Special Edition
		That's the breakneck first act of Strangers on a Train (1951), directed with typically efficient, fetishistic flourish by Alfred Hitchcock, who also happened to be working with some of the best material of his career in Patricia Highsmith's dark-hearted debut novel.
		But what separates the accomplishment of Strangers on a Train from that earlier masterpiece is the late second-act detour Hitchcock takes from Highsmith's novel, which sends the deftly constructed yarn down a wholly different, and potentially less disturbing, thematic track that seems somewhat uncharacteristic of The Master.
		Disc Two boasts a series of featurettes, beginning with the imaginatively titled "Strangers on a Train: A Hitchcock Classic" (36 min.), which, aside from the occasional interview overlap with the commentary, is a reasonably informative behind-the-scenes look at the film.

	Strangers On A Train
		On a train he meets Bruno Antony (Robert Walker), a man of no real means it seems but with some rather strange ideas, to go with the little problem he has with his father.
		There is not a huge amount of difference between the two versions: they comprise mainly some additional footage and dialogue during the train scene (Chapter 3), a lack of dog snarling (Chapter 21) and a different ending (Chapter 33) in the British versions.
		Strangers On A Train is another classic film in the filmography of the great Alfred Hitchcock, but it is somewhat let down by the transfer.

		The 1950 novel STRANGERS ON A TRAIN was Highsmith's first novel, and the premise was so intriguing that no less than legendary director Alfred Hitchcock snapped up the movie rights and turned it into one of his most admired films.
		Although long out of print in the United States, STRANGERS ON A TRAIN is back with a vengeance--and the icy, direct, and darkly comic tone of the novel sets it among the best of Highsmith's remarkable work.
		"Strangers on a Train" is a little known classic that tampers with the standard hero-wins, bad-guy-loses-formula.

		"Strangers On A Train" bears many comparisons with Patricia Highsmith's other great work "The Talented Mr Ripley", in fact it can almost be seen as a precursor to it.
		We know he is a disturbed young man right from the outset, when he meets Guy on the train and indulges in a fatal and macabre "what if?" game with him.
		Her depiction of Guy and Bruno and the claustrophobic atmosphere she creates throughout Strangers on a Train combine to make a compelling read.

		Strangers on a Train: Highsmith, Hitchcock and the Process of Adaptation
		Hitchcock is a director who often used novels as a starting point (so, e.g., Vertigo, as well as Strangers on a Train, is adapted from a novel).
		His tendency, however, was always to regard these novels as raw material to be substantially reworked in the process of creating his films (as Brian McFarlane says in Novel to Film, in spite of his frequent adaptation of novels, ''Who, indeed, ever thinks of Hitchcock as primarily an adaptor of other people's fictions?').
