Young and Innocent

One of Hitchcock' s more charming affairs. The daughter of a police constable is heading an investigation into the death of an actress whose body was washed ashore. The prime, and in fact only, suspect is a young man who maintains his innocence, despite the fact that everything is against him. The film boasts one of Hitchcock's most memorable visual effects, namely a remarkable crane and dolly shot which moves across a grand ballroom and into the face of the murderer with his twitching eye.
