Originally shot in 3D and restored for Blu-Ray 3D, Alfred Hitchcock's screen version of Frederick Knott's stage hit Dial M for Murder is a tasty blend of elegance and suspense, casting Grace Kelly, Ray Milland and Robert Cummings as the points of a romantic triangle. Kelly won the New York Film Critics and National Board of Review Best Actress Awards for this and two other acclaimed 1954 performances (Hitchcock's Rear Window and her Oscar-honored work in The Country Girl). She loves Cummings; her husband Milland plots her murder. But when he dials a Mayfair exchange to set the plot in motion, his right number gets the wrong answer - and gleaming scissors become a deadly weapon. Dial "M" for the Master of Suspense at his most stylish.
The DVD stopped playing at 55 minutes with an Intermission that wouldn't proceed further. I removed the DVD from my player and tried again by going into Scene Selections by trying to access any of the scenes after the Intermission. Nothing happens when clicking on any scene after the Intermission. The DVD stops. Up to 55 minutes, the DVD was playing just fine.
