Polished and Intriguing Hitchcock Film

Although nearly identical in premise to Hitchcock's original film, this remake is more polished and features the likable pairing of Jimmy Stewart and Doris Day. The intrigue is allowed to flow organically, which helps the film out; we are given information only as Stewart and Day discover it. The opera assassination scene, particularly, is a masterpiece of editing to build tension.
