If Thelma Ritter ever gave a performance where she was NOT a National Treasure, then I have yet to see it.

Haven’t seen the remake. I wouldn’t mind giving it a shot. I like Christopher Reeve but I’m very skeptical a remake could match Hitchcock’s touch. Glad you like it though!

Ritter and Kelly are SO good in this!

On the other hand the original has Thelma Ritter AND Grace Kelly, so what more could an admirer ask?

…

One would say that I like the two of them for different reasons, but in all honesty it would be more accurate to say that they’re equally charming in different styles, rather than in different degrees.
