Arguably Alfred Hitchcock's best film and Teresa Wright's best performance, Shadow of a Doubt is a low-key thriller about a murderer who comes to live with his sister's family in ‘peaceful, quiet Santa Rosa’ in an effort to elude the police, and his young niece who finds him out. Filmed primarily on location in Santa Rosa, California, Shadow of a Doubt is often regarded as Hitchcock's first truly ‘American’ movie. His success in creating a credible small-town atmosphere populated by ‘typical American’ characters makes the evil which intrudes upon this sunny utopia all the more frightening. Tate Modern, Starr Auditorium £3.50 (£2 concessions), booking recommended
